In the journal 'International Journal of Surgery Case Reports', a 40-year-old Italian woman was diagnosed with a sharp increase in the size of her left breast during the three years after pregnancy.
Earlier, the woman underwent IVF for pregnancy, during which she was treated with 'ovine stimulating hormone'.
This treatment is a treatment that uses hormones to increase the number of eggs released from the ovaries, and is often used in the IVF process.
Women had no adverse events from medication in the past and maintained a regular menstrual cycle since menarche at age 12.
As a result, the medical team estimated that it was a side effect of 'ovine stimulating hormone'.
She complained of severe back pain, difficulty walking, and psychological pain as her left breast grew rapidly along with weight gain.
There was some congestion in the sub-mastric wrinkles, but no ulcers, and no fungal disease was observed in the breast wrinkles as a result of consultation with a dermatologist. Hand-touch palpation tests showed no tenderness and no lymph nodes were found.
Medical staff at the University of Campania Medical School in Italy performed breast reduction surgery and papillary transplantation to reduce breast size.
The breast tissue of about 3.45 kg was successfully removed by surgery, and the sizes of both chests were matched similarly.
Examination of the resected tissue revealed no cancer, but 'atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH)', which affects the breast ducts.
No characteristic complications were observed during the follow-up period after surgery.
