Gynaecomastia
(Gyno) is a benign enlargement of the male breast ( bilateral but also some times
unilateral) resulting from a proliferation of the glandular component of the
breast. It is defined clinically by the presence of a rubber or firm mass
extending from the nipples. Gynaecomastia

deposition without glandular proliferation (lipomastia).

be categorized into two kinds –glandular tissue which is dense and firm and
also fatty tissue which is soft. The
ratio of these both tissues varies from person to person. If the glandular tissue is overboard then the
excess of it can be surgically removed with a scalpel. On the other hand if the
fatty tissue is excessive, liposuction may be needed. At most times, a
combination of both may be required.
