“…AIS was more severe, requiring surgical correction more often. Thereafter, the reported prevalence differ widely, the surgical treatment of one deformity is assumed to affect the other and the management of PD with concomitant scoliosis is little evaluated [ 9 , 10 ]. Nonetheless, current assumptions are frequently still based on Waters et al.…”

“…We performed a CRN procedure in a patient with PE with dyspnea following scoliosis repair to improve her symptoms. In previous reports, scoliosis was found in ~20% of patients with PE [ 2–4 ]. In the present case, the development of dyspnea was considered to be caused by the scoliosis repair prior to PE repair followed by worsening of right IPV stenosis ( Fig.…”

“…Pectus excavatum (PE) is the most common congenital chest wall deformity [ 1 ]. It sometimes elicits cardiovascular disturbances and pulmonary dysfunctions as a result of severe sternal depression [ 2 ]. Therefore, surgeons must consider the risk of serious complications during surgical treatment of severe chest deformities.…”

Pectus excavatum (PE) is often associated with scoliosis and can elicit cardiovascular disturbances under rare conditions. Here we report a patient who was treated with a combined Ravitch and Nuss procedure for PE with dyspnea following scoliosis repair to improve her symptoms. The patient was a 49-year-old woman with a history of PE and scoliosis. Right inferior pulmonary vein stenosis was caused by posterior spinal fusion for scoliosis prior to the PE repair. We could safely correct the chest wall deformity and treat dyspnea by performing a modified Ravitch repair in combination with the Nuss procedure.

“…Pectus excavatum is a congenital deformation of the connecting cartilages between the ribs and sternum which pushes the sternum posteriorly, leading to cardiopulmonary compression, which can decrease daily functionality and quality of life ( 41 ). Conventional repair methods include the modified Ravitch procedure which involves resection of the deformed cartilages, fracturing of the sternum, and internal fixation of the ribs/sternum, or the trans-mediastinal placement of titanium bars behind the sternum to gradually remodel the chest wall over a period of 1–2 years using the less invasive Nuss procedure ( 42 , 43 ).…”

Since the 1970s, magnetic force has been used to augment modern surgical techniques with the aims of minimizing surgical trauma and optimizing minimally-invasive systems. The majority of current clinical applications for magnetic surgery are largely centered around gastrointestinal uses—such as gastrointestinal or bilioenteric anastomosis creation, stricturoplasty, sphincter augmentation, and the guidance of nasoenteric feeding tubes. However, as the field of magnetic surgery continues to advance, the development and clinical implementation of magnetic devices has expanded to treat a variety of non-gastrointestinal disorders including musculoskeletal (pectus excavatum, scoliosis), respiratory (obstructive sleep apnea), cardiovascular (coronary artery stenosis, end-stage renal disease), and genitourinary (stricture, nephrolithiasis) conditions. The purpose of this review is to discuss the current state of innovative magnetic surgical devices under clinical investigation or commercially available for the treatment of non-gastrointestinal disorders.
