- Abstract:
- Objective To summarize our clinical experiences of mini-invasive surgery for pectus excavatum (PE) in children.Methods From January 2019 to February 2023, retrospective analysis was performed for clinical data of 141 PE children undergoing mini-invasive surgical repair with a modified Nuss procedure.Results All operations were successfully completed with a mean operative duration of (52.9±21.7) min and a mean intraoperative volume of blood loss (2.7±1.8) ml.The mean hospital stay was (7.4±2.1) days.And the usage length of correction bar ranged from 10 inches (25.4 cm) to 13 inches (33.0 cm).They maintained an excellent appearance, resumed normal activities and had no discomfort.The children and their families were satisfied with the correction outcomes.There were no serious postoperative complications.Among them, 85 cases had a removal of correction bar with a mean removal time of (18.3±7.3) month.Chest wall regained an excellent appearance without any recurrence after removal.Conclusion Mini-invasive modified Nuss procedure for PE offers the advantages of safety, aesthetics, minimal trauma, quick recovery and low recurrence rate in children.Selecting appropriate patients with a stronger surgical aspiration is vital for successful surgery.
