Cutaneous Manifestation
The definitive therapy is surgical, but until breast growth is stabilized, cutaneous manifestations need to be managed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Large Breast
Bilateral Hypertrophy means large breasts. 611.1 is a diagnostic code used for health insurance. [realself.com]
The superior pedicle custom-made technique is a safe method of breast reduction regardless of the degree of parenchymal resection, achieving a successful aesthetic outcome with minimal scarring and high satisfaction rate for both small and large breast [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Convert to ICD-10-CM : 611.1 converts directly to: 2015/16 ICD-10-CM N62 Hypertrophy of breast Approximate Synonyms Atypical lobular hyperplasia of left breast Atypical lobular hyperplasia of right breast Breast hypertrophy Gynecomastia Large breast Macromastia [icd9data.com]
Breast hypertrophy is by definition disproportionally large breasts with excessive breast tissue. This may occur as early as puberty, as a result of pregnancies, weight gain or even menopause. [drlilyvrtik.com.au]
Excessively large breasts can be more than an aesthetic embarrassment, they can also cause severe physical symptoms that directly impact quality of life. [nygplasticsurgery.com]

Treatment
Methods of treatment for each category of cystosarcoma phylloides, based upon morphological criteria, are outlined and the prognosis discussed. The special problem of cystosarcoma phylloides in the adolescent is reviewed and treatment recommended. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The prognosis for gynecomastia resulting from a disease ( cirrhosis of the liver or testicular cancer) depends on the outcome of that underlying disease. Drug-induced gynecomastia usually subsides with stopping the particular drugs. [nmihi.com]
Precise pathological diagnosis of breast disease is the most critical factor in determining treatment and establishing prognosis. [books.google.com]
Treatment and prognosis Medical treatment is with bromocriptine administration; however surgical intervention may be required if the disorder continues to progress. The usual surgical management involves reduction mammoplasty. [radiopaedia.org]
Etiology
It is not known if the hyperprolactinemia was etiologically related to the breast hypertrophy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Most authors agree that this condition is hormonal in etiology, but its precise mechanism is unclear. [aibolita.com]
Epidemiology
The anomalies are organized by anatomical system and presented in a consistent manner, including details of the clinical presentation, epidemiology, embryology, treatment and prevention for each anomaly. [books.google.com]

Pathophysiology
It is unclear why the response to the hormones differs from neonate to neonate, but it has been suggested that individual factors such as hypersensitivity of the breast tissue to estrogen and/or prolactin are the main pathophysiologic factor for this [omicsonline.org]
Discussion The pathophysiology of gigantomastia is still unknow; although no precise mechanism is known for this rare clinical entity, theories such as end-organ hyper-sensitivity, autoimmune stimulation antibodies, high IGF-1 and hyperprolactinemia have [panafrican-med-journal.com]

Many of the larger-breasted women also reported that they believed that their breast size prevented them from exercising easily, even in low-impact activities like walking or swimming. [nytimes.com]
Breast reduction surgery removes tissue to reduce pressure and increase airflow to the chest area, which prevents these rashes and improves patient comfort and mobility. [drlinder.com]
