Surgical excision remains one of the most effective methods for the management of patients with gynecomastia, particularly those with fibrosis or a course of >1 year. The present study describes two cases of patients with gynecomastia and presents a novel method of treatment, combining endoscopic surgery and liposuction using a TriPort, which may effectively remove breast tissue and shorten hospitalization time compared with a direct excision method. |
