Harm of Pectus Excavatum

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Pectus Excavatum. When the deformity is mild, the symptoms are mild and generally do not require treatment; when the deformity is severe, it can affect lung and heart function, and surgical treatment is recommended as early as possible. Pectus Excavatum is a congenital disease and generally cannot heal on its own, requiring surgical correction. The usual surgical age is after 3 years old. Currently, minimally invasive surgery is performed, and the results are generally good.
