    Author: Yanai A, Hirabayashi S, Ueda K, Okabe K.
    Journal: Ann Plast Surg; 1987 Apr; 18(4):314-8. PubMed ID: 3579171.
    Abstract:
    Recurrent subareolar abscess is an infrequent but troublesome disease of the breast among young women. Recent experience with 5 patients indicated that successful treatment of recurrent subareolar abscess requires excision of the diseased ducts and necrotic cavity, including the inverted section of the nipple. The operative procedure described herein allows us to radically manage recurrent subareolar abscess and at the same time leave a nipple with a good cosmetic appearance.
