“…Preoperative workup for patients with recurrent PE does not differ from that of patients presenting for primary repair [12][13][14]; it includes: chest CT scan, cardiopulmonary evaluation, including pulmonary function tests (PFT) and echocardiogram.…”

“…Technical modifications introduced at our institution have been previously described in detail [14]. Briefly, no thoracoscopic guidance is used, the left-to-right approach is used to create the retrosternal dissection and introduce the bar, and the four-point fixation technique, employing two lateral stabilizers and two medial wire sutures, stabilizes the bar.…”

“…One single-center study has shown a bar displacement rate of 2.9% and a surgical infection rate of 0.7% with the routine use of chlorhexidine scrubbing. 20 The most serious complication of the Nuss technique is direct cardiac injury. According to one report, 13 such incidents have occurred since the technique was introduced in the late 1980s.…”

“…20 Recurrence risk varies depending on patient age at the time of the original correction, presence of connective tissue disorders, and the type of repair. Most recurrent cases can be successfully corrected using the minimally invasive Nuss approach, regardless of initial repair technique.…”

“…В литературе описано более 80 раз-личных вариантов хирургических вмешательств и их модификаций для коррекции ВДГК [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. Но, несмотря на большое количество различ-ных методик ее оперативного лечения, отдален-ные результаты не всегда удовлетворяют хирурга и пациента [17][18][19][20]. Повсеместно распространен-ный малоинвазивный способ торакопластики по D. Nuss также не позволяет решить все пробле-мы, в том числе развитие частичного рецидива деформации у детей, перенесших торакопластику в дошкольном возрасте, деформация/пролежни опорных ребер под металлоконструкцией и мно-гочисленные интра-и послеоперационные ослож-нения.…”
