Purpose: Liver transplantation is a groundbreaking section in the field of surgery. Nowadays over 90% of success rate is accomplished and life expectancy of the patients has been elongated. Patients are now seeking for surgical procedures including cosmetic plastic surgery. But these patients take immunosuppressive medication and steroids, which can increase the risk of wound infection, and delay wound healing. By reviewing the case of a 21-year-old liver transplant recipient who underwent mastopexy due to breast ptosis, we discussed about the matters we should consider when performing surgery in liver transplantation recipients. Methods: The patient was a 21-year-old female who received liver transplantation from her father. She was exposed to massive amount of steroids and immunosuppressants, which led to breast ptosis. The vertical and short horizontal incision mastopexy using a medial-based pedicle was done, 29 months after the liver transplantation. Results: On postoperative day 1, she was discharged. On day 10, sutures were removed and taping was applied. There was no sign of wound infection, wound dehiscence, hematoma or bleeding. The patient was followed up at 3, 6 and 9 months after the operation. Mild recurrence of the glandular ptosis was observed but revision was not required. Conclusion: We were able to successfully operate without any complications in the liver transplant recipient. With special attention and consideration, cosmetic plastic surgery can be safely performed in organ transplantation recipients.
