Abstract:
:Six patients with pectus excavatum and two patients with pectus carinatum had their conditions corrected by a partial costal cartilage resection with a sternal osteotomy through a 2.5-cm to 4-cm skin incision located just above the xyphoid process assisted by an endoscope. In addition to the incision, stab wounds of less than 3 mm in diameter were also made, in some cases, for insertion of the surgical instruments to facilitate the operation. The ribs and rib cartilages were exposed beyond the affected area through a prexyphoid incision under endoscopic control. The mobility of the skin incision site was thus enhanced, and it was possible to perform most of the subperichondrial partial costal cartilage resection under direct visualization. The pleura was freed from the sternum under endoscopic visualization. The advantages of this technique include minimal operative scars and the ability to free the pleura from the sternum under endoscopically magnified visualization, which prevents rupturing of the pleura in the retrosternal area.
