We aimed to investigate the effect of the chosen pedicle on nipple vascularity by evaluating changes in the microvascular circulation of the nipples in patients undergoing reduction mammoplasty through superb microvascular imaging study (SMI). 70 nipples were included in this retrospective study. There were 15 patients (30 nipples) in Group A using the inferior pedicle and 20 patients (40 nipples) in Group B using the superomedial pedicle. The vascular index (VI) of each nipple were evaluated preoperatively and at the third postoperative month using SMI. The mean VI in Group A was 1.25 (0.5-3.6) preoperatively and 1.3 (0.4-3.2) at the third postoperative month (P > .05). The mean VI in Group B was 1.65 (0.7/2.9) preoperatively and 1.15 (0.2/1.9) at the third postoperative month (P < .05). While the VI increased by 11.3% in Group A, it decreased by 30.6% in Group B (P < .001). The changing of the VI was analyzed between comparable groups, and decreasing microvascular circulation of the nipple with use of the superomedial pedicle was detected by quantitative values, which can be useful in at-risk patient groups, the planning of surgical procedures, and early revisions at postoperative month 3.
