Abstract

Objective To compare the coronary incision with the sagittal incision in transaxillary breast augmentation. Methods A total of 60 patients who underwent transaxillary subpectoral breast augmentation with round breast implants were randomly allocated into two groups: Group A (30 patients) received coronary incision, while Group B received sagittal incision. The operative time of implant insertion, the distinction of scar and the repair rate of scar were compared between the two groups. Results The mean operative time of implant insertion in group A was (14.55±3.79)s, and that in group B was (27.38±6.79) s, with statistically significant difference (t=9.03, P 0.05) or the repair rate of scar (χ2=0.35, P>0.05) between two groups. Conclusions As for the operative time of implant insertion, the coronary incision is better than the sagittal incision. Key words: Axillary approach; Coronal incision; Sagittal incision; Breast augmentation; Prosthesis implantation; Operation time
