Answer: Can I have a breast reduction if I have cerebral palsy hemiplegia left-sided? Thank you for the question and picture. Based on prescription commons sound like an excellent candidate for breast reduction surgery. I would suggest that you run your plan by your primary care physician; assuming you are in good health, it is likely that he/she will agree. Then seek consultation with a few board-certified plastic surgeons who can demonstrate significant experience achieving the types of outcomes you will be pleased with. I hope this, and the attached link, helps. Best wishes.

Answer: Breast reduction in a patient with cerebral palsy. I don't see a contraindication to this operation because of your central nervous system issue. Obviously it would have to be approved by your neurologist but the functional improvements from a breast reduction should be well worth the operation.

Answer: Cerebral palsy should not stop you from being a candidate for breast reduction Provided that you are otherwise in good enough health to tolerate the operation, your history of cerebral palsy itself should not keep you from having the procedure. In fact, I have operated on several patients with cerebral palsy myself, and they have all done well. It sounds like your breasts are disproportionately large and causing you significant problems. This might compound your disability, and in my opinion, it could be even more the reason why the operation might benefit you. I can see how it could alleviate a huge physical burden from you and make everyday mobility, let alone exercise, more possible. I'm not sure exactly how the NHS handles the approval of the operation in the UK, but in the States it all starts with an evaluation by a board certified plastic surgeon. This typically involves a detailed history, physical exam complete with measurements of the breasts and an estimate of volume of breast tissue to be removed, and photographs of your breasts for documentation purposes. All of this is forwarded in a package to the patient's insurance company, and a decision is rendered as to whether or not she meets their criteria to have the operation covered. I assume there is a similar process over on that side of the pond, too. So, it sounds to me as though you would make a good candidate for the procedure based upon the little information that you have provided here, and my best advice at this point is to pursue it with your primary doctor and get some consultations scheduled with plastic surgeons so that you can be evaluated for the procedure. Best of luck!
