Summary

In breast reduction surgery, delayed wound healing may increase surgical site infections, cutaneous necrosis and may be related to psychological harm.Some risk factors have been identified : smoking, diabetes, overweight. A normal healing involve cellular and biochemical reactions in which iron plays an important role such as cellular respiration, redox reactions and regulation of genes involved in the cell cycle. This trial will study the relationship between iron stores and postoperative wound healing after bilateral breast reduction surgery in patients without preoperative anaemia.The primary outcome of this trial is the comparison of wound healing at post operative day 15, between patients with and without iron deficiency.
