Because of the great variablity of this congenital deformity among those who have it a custom made implant must be used. A plaster model is made of the deformity in the plastic surgeon's office. The model is then sent to the manufacturer who makes a custom silicone implant.
Note that the abdomen appears to protrude due to the chest depression. After placement of the implant it appears to protrude less even though its position has not changed.
Correction of pectus deformity surgery can enhance your appearance and your self confidence. Realistic expectations are important to be happy with any surgery. As each patient is an individual, different results can be expected in each patient.

Pectus Excavatum Repair - Series Pectus excavatum is a congenital abnormality that can be mild or fairly marked.

Pectus excavatum displaces the sternum, or breastbone, rearward and leaves a deep groove in the chest, making it appear caved-in. Stooped shoulders and poor posture exaggerate the effect, which carries both a physiological and a psychological burden, says Dr. Don K. Nakayama, professor and chief of pediatric surgery at the UNC-CH School of Medicine.

Zebulon Youth Overcoming Funnel Chest
Condition Causes Chest To Collapse
ZEBULON Imagine that you are in peak physical condition, and the next day, you can not even run around the yard. Sounds unbelievable, but it happened to a 14-year-old Zebulon boy. He was diagnosed with funnel chest, a condition where the chest actually begins to cave in. Owen Hutchings has always been active. But two years ago, his chest started caving in, and he could not run or play for long without getting winded. "After 20 minutes or so, he wouldn't be able to run around or kick the ball, and he'd have to take time out," said Owen's father, Steven Hutchings.

Children's Hospital Boston

The Nuss Procedure

Owen has pectus excavatum, a condition also known as funnel chest. In this condition, the chest itself collapses for some reason, and no one really knows why. Funnel chest is more common in boys. In most cases, the diagnosis comes at the worst possible time: puberty, a time when young boys are already self-conscious enough about their bodies.
