Closed-suction Drains Reduce Postoperative Complications After Inferior Pedicle Reduction Mammaplasty With Adjunct Liposuction

Key Points

• To evaluate the impact of closed-suction drains on postoperative complications in patients undergoing inferior pedicle reduction mammaplasty with adjunct liposuction.
• Comparative analysis of postoperative outcomes in patients with and without closed-suction drains
• Focus on complications like T-point breakdown and seroma
• Evaluation specific to inferior pedicle reduction mammaplasty with adjunct liposuction
• Closed-suction drains significantly reduced T-point breakdown in patients with liposuction
• Seroma occurrence was mitigated with closed-suction drains
• Support for routine drain placement during inferior pedicle reduction surgeries with liposuction
