Notes

  • 1) In carrying out the research for this paper, I found the use of both “mammaplasty” and “mammoplasty” in the titles and text of books, articles, and on Internet sites. When quoting and referencing, I will retain the spelling the writer used. However, in my own comments, I will attempt to maintain the use of “mammaplasty,” thereby retaining the root “mammary.”
