Extensive Expertise
Understanding Chest Wall Deformities
Chest wall deformities are structural abnormalities in the ribs, sternum, or cartilage that can affect breathing, heart function, and physical appearance. While some cases are mild and cosmetic, others require medical intervention to prevent complications.
Pectus Excavatum ("Sunken Chest")
The sternum is abnormally depressed, giving the chest a caved-in appearance. Can cause breathing difficulties, heart compression, and poor posture. Minimally invasive surgical correction available (Nuss procedure).
Pectus Carinatum ("Pigeon Chest")
The chest protrudes outward due to abnormal cartilage growth. Can cause discomfort, respiratory issues, and psychological distress. Non-surgical & surgical options available, including bracing and open surgery.
Chest Wall Tumors & Trauma-Related Deformities
Result from injuries, infections, or tumors affecting rib and sternum structure. Surgical reconstruction may be needed for functional and aesthetic restoration.
Services & Treatment Options
- Advanced Diagnosis & Screening
- Comprehensive clinical evaluation, imaging (CT scans, MRI, X-ray) for accurate assessment.
- Pulmonary function tests to evaluate breathing capacity and impact on lung function.
- Minimally Invasive Surgery (Nuss Procedure for Pectus Excavatum)
- Uses small incisions to place a curved metal bar behind the sternum to correct deformity.
- Benefits:
- Shorter recovery time
- Minimal scarring
- Improved chest symmetry and lung function
- Open Surgical Reconstruction (Ravitch Procedure for Severe Cases)
- Traditional approach for severe chest wall deformities, involving removal of abnormal cartilage and repositioning of the sternum.
- Often recommended for complex or rigid deformities.
- Non-Surgical Treatments (Bracing for Pectus Carinatum)
- Custom-fitted chest braces can gradually correct the deformity over time.
- Most effective for younger patients with flexible chest walls.
