Sun-Cross Running Suture Combined with Transverse to Longitudinal Skin Closure to Correct Severe Inverted Nipple

ConclusionThis is a simple, safe, effective and reliable technique that should be considered, providing sustained results over the long-term follow-up period with a high rate of stable eversion and low incidence of ischemia, necrosis, scarring and dysesthesia.
