Anisomastia

Anisomastia is a medical condition in which there is a severe asymmetry or unequalness in the size of the breasts, generally related to a difference in volume.^[1] In other words, when one of the breasts is much larger than the other.^[2] In contrast to anisomastia, a slightly asymmetry of the breasts is common.^[1] Anisomastia may be corrected by surgical breast augmentation or reduction.^[3]
