  • Title: Complications of surgery for pectus excavatum.
    Author: Haller JA.
    Journal: Chest Surg Clin N Am; 2000 May; 10(2):415-26, ix. PubMed ID: 10803343.
    Abstract:
    The article describes the various acute and late complications of surgery for pectus excavatum. Because the acute complications are well known and easily managed and the late complications can be prevented, operative correction of pectus excavatum can be recommended to parents and their children with severe deformities with very little risk and a realistic expectation of good long-term correction.
