OPERATION AS A METHOD OF AESTHETIC CORRECTION OF FUNNEL-SHAPED DEFORMATION OF CHEST AT CHILDREN
Abstract
The authors impart an experience gained in the course of medical treatment of 43 children suffering from funnel-shaped deformation of chest. In most cases this deformation was asymmetrical. In order to provide chest modeling of regular shape for the patients with this pathology, the authors used external device of their own design. Using distraction compression attachment of the external device, mobilized breast bone and ribs were fixed to achieve regular spatial posture. By doing this, in all cases the authors have succeeded in achieving positive aesthetic effect due to distraction compression modeling of symmetrical ellipsoid chest and improvement of bearing in the sagittal plane.
