Objective  To investigate effect of optimizing operation procedure (OOP) on surgical outcomes of complete endoscopic subcutaneous mastectomy (CESM) in treatment of gynecomastia. Methods  A total of 217 patients with gynecomastia underwent CESM from January 2014 to March 2017 in the Third People’s Hospital of Chengdu were collected according to the criteria for inclusion and exclusion, further, based on a propensity score-matching model, a total of 94 patients were evenly assigned to OOP group (April 2015 later) and non-OOP group (before April 2015). The CESM with or without OOP was performed in the OOP group or the non-OOP group, respectively. The operative time, postoperative length of stay, treatment expenses, and favorable cosmetic effect were compared in these two groups. Results  The differences in the general clinical data in both groups were not statistically significant (P>0.05). The operative time (min) was shorter (139.90±37.18versus 175.20±46.99, P=0.002), the postoperative length of stay (d) was shorter too (7.13±1.46 versus 8.47±2.71, P=0.021), and the treatment expenses (yuan) were more less (11 426.80±1 861.19 versus 12 315.75±1 306.64, P=0.036) in the OOP group as compared with the non-OOP group. Meanwhile the favorable cosmetic effect of the self-evaluation score in the OOP group was significantly higher than that in the non-OOP group (7.33±1.16 versus 5.97±1.16, P<0.05). Conclusion  This study demonstrates that using optimizing standard CESM could shorten operative time, reduce treatment expenses, and improve satisfaction of patients.
