Should a child with pectus excavatum but no calcium deficiency go to the hospital?

Patient's question:

My daughter was diagnosed with pectus excavatum when she was 1.5 years old. All the trace element test results were normal. Why is that? Is it congenital? Do I still need to supplement with calcium? However, she has only grown 8 teeth, and her fontanelle hasn't closed yet.

Doctor's answer:

Mostly congenital. Your condition has been understood. Specific advice is to go to the hospital for examination and treatment.
