Öz:
Amaç: Meme, cinsiyeti tanımlayan ikincil seks karakterlerinden biridir. Memenin estetik ve rekonstrüktif ameliyatlarını uygulayacak cerrahın memenin estetik görünümünü değerlendirmesi uygun bir yaklaşımdır. Yöntem: Farklı meme boyutları ve şekilleri olan dört farklı kadın seçildi. Bu dört farklı kadının önden ve sağ oblik yönden çekilmiş fotoğrafları kullanılarak bir anket formu hazırlandı. Katılımcılardan memelerin simetrisini, şeklini ve boyutunu fotoğraflara bakarak değerlendirmeleri ve çekicilik puanını belirleyip yorumlamaları istendi. Bulgular: 430 erkek, 570 kadın katılımcı çalışmaya katıldı. B kap büyüklüğündeki meme, tüm gruplarda modeller arasında en yüksek çekicilik puanını aldı. Sarkma en çok yorumlanan ve eleştirilen parametre oldu. Sonuç: Toplumumuzda memenin estetik bakış açısını değerlendirmeyi amaçlayan bu çalışmanın, hastanın beklentilerini anlamak, onu doğru yönlendirmek ve cerrah olarak yapabileceklerimizi geliştirmek açısından faydalı olduğunu düşünüyoruz.
