"Funnel Chest" Surgery Not Only For Cosmetic Purposes
New research suggests that surgery on patients with pectus excavatum significantly improves cardiovascular function, contradicting arguments that the procedure offers only cosmetic benefits. Researchers from Nebraska and California conducted a metaanalysis that included 169 patients with the chest wall deformity, also known as "funnel chest." Patient data were pulled from eight original investigations from 1960 to 2005, which met five inclusion criteria, including duration between pre- and postoperative assessments and quantitative measures of cardiovascular function. Researchers concluded that the average cardiovascular lung function increased by greater than one-half standard deviation following surgery.
