Reduction mammoplasty in cases of giant fibroadenoma among adolescent females. Case reports and literature review.

Giant tumours of the breast cause massive enlargement of the breast resulting in asymmetry. Simple excision of the tumour fails to restore symmetry, and in some cases leaves the patient with a secondary deformity. We present two cases of giant fibroadenoma in adolescent females. Both patients underwent a one-stage excision of the giant fibroadenoma and reduction mammoplasty. Relevant operative details and results are presented together with a review of the literature.
