Abstract
SummaryPectus deformities arise from overgrowth of the cartilagenous portion of the ribs. Traditional resective/open procedures have been almost entirely replaced by video assisted retrosternal bar placement with excellent outcomes. This review considers the comprehensive evaluation and care of a pectus patinet as well as technical details regarding conduct of the surgery.
