AbstractWe present a case report of a patient who developed an unusual bilateral breast pain syndrome after a reduction mammoplasty. Her symptoms and physical examination findings resolved after four stellate ganglion blocks, of which two on each side were performed over a period of 2 weeks. The case serves to alert clinicians to the possibility of a patient developing a sympathetically mediated pain syndrome after reduction mammoplasty.
