Abstract
Foreground: Gynecomastia occurs when the glandular tissue of the male breast grows abnormally, resulting in an
abnormally big mass that extends concentrically from the base of the nipple. Objectives and goals Results of subcutaneous
liposuction and glandular excision via an inframammary incision for the treatment of gynecomastia are the focus of this
research. The department of general surgery at Benha University's college of medicine studied 20 teenage male patients
aged 18-35 with gynecomastia ranging from grade I to early grade III. 50% of men had gynecomastia on the right side,
whereas 45% had just minor gynecomastia. Among those who took part in the study, just 20% had firm gynecomastia,
while 55% had fair skin quality. Conclusion: Liposuction is usually the first step in surgical therapy since it is less
invasive and often effective
