Inverted nipple presents both cosmetic and functional problems. Various surgical treatments have been introduced to correct the deformity, but frequently ended up with recurrences. To reduce the recurrence rate, stable suspension is required during wound healing period after surgical correction. Authors present a new suspension device using a biopsy bottle. To apply this device, first of all, the retracted nipple is held with 2 traction sutures using 4-0 nylon, and then the surgical correction is performed. After the correction is completed, the traction sutures are tied to bottom of biopsy bottle through the previously prepared holes. The biopsy bottle covers areolar and nipples complex with suspension of traction sutures. The suspension goes on for 1 week. From August of 1997 to December of 2002, we corrected inverted nipples in 75 patients. After operation, we applied these devices to all nipples for suspension. 54 cases of corrected nipples in 58 cases, which could be followed up, were kept corrected for more than 6 months. The authors feel that this idea is not only useful but also provides a simple, economical and efficient to suspend nipple after surgery.
