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 slight asymmetry of the breasts is common. [1]
Fluctuating asymmetry (FA) is often considered to be the product of developmental stress and instability, caused by both genetic and environmental stressors. The notion that FA is a result of genetic and environmental factors is supported by Waddington's notion of canalisation, which implies that FA is a measure of the genome's ability to successfully buffer development to achieve a normal ...
Life didn’t stop just because Emily was diagnosed with breast cancer. Six personal challenges aligned with each of her six chemotherapy treatments. A severed bicep, sick dog and more.
An anchor incision adds to that a transverse incision usually in the infra mammary fold to further remove excessive skin. Draping or blousing is not desirable. This is reserved for much larger breasts or topographically a larger surface area as seen in women with postpartum breast atrophy.

Most snails, because of torsion during development, show remarkable asymmetry in the shell and in the internal organs. [4] Male fiddler crabs have one big claw and one small claw. [5] The narwhal's tusk is a left incisor which can grow up to 10 feet in length and forms a left-handed helix. [6]
Female dogs who are not spayed or who are spayed later than the first heat cycle are more likely to develop mammary tumors. Dogs have an overall reported incidence of mammary tumors of 3.4 percent. Dogs spayed before their first heat have 0.5 percent of this risk, and dogs spayed after just one heat cycle have 8 percent of this risk. [1]
Additionally, female barn swallows, a species where adults have long tail streamers, prefer to mate with males that have the most symmetrical tails. [26] While symmetry is known to be under selection, the evolutionary history of different types of symmetry in animals is an area of extensive debate.
