Pectus or chest wall deformity refers to a relatively common condition where the chest presents an irregular shape.

The Pectus if appears during childhood or adolescence, will grow until it reaches its complete condition and will remain unchanged unless treated correctly. Other Pectus conditions are congenital (born with) or acquired externally (caused by a trauma or by a surgery near or on the chest wall).

There are two main types of deformities: Pectus Excavatum (sunken chest) and Pectus Carinatum (pigeon chest) but there are many more complex types or ‘mixed’ pectus deformities as well as other chest wall problems.

Patients with Pectus Excavatum or Pectus Carinatum can experience some of the following symptoms:

Pain – present in the chest and back area. Tends to come and go. Happens in certain positions (for example when lying face down). Usually present when doing activities or exercise.

Breathlessness – shortness of breath, constriction of breathing or tight chestiness, usually present when doing activities or exercise. ‘Asthma’ like symptoms.

Psychological – a significant impact on self esteem, confidence and health concerns
