  • Title: Augmentation mammaplasty for mammarial hypotrophy and ptosis in a patient with ichthyosis.
    Author: Coban YK, Sasmaz S, Celik M.
    Journal: Aesthetic Plast Surg; 2003; 27(4):293-5. PubMed ID: 15058552.
    Abstract:
    A 30-year-old female with mammarial hypotrophy was diagnosed with non-bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma (NBCIE) with dermatologic evaluation. Her mammarial hypotrophy and ptosis was corrected with a breast implant. Although there is a tendency to skin infections and increased skin fragility in the ichthyotic patients, breast augmentation with silicone prosthesis is well-tolerated by the patient.
