Abstract:
Computer-aided design and manufacturing of custom-made elastomer implants leads from a CT scan to fill in with precision, a congenital chest wall congenital deformity, both bone (pectus excavatum) and muscle (Poland Syndrome), resulting in a natural repositioning of the breasts. We report our 25 years' experience in 301 women (234 Pectus+64 Poland). Parietal correction must always be done in first intention. It is common to have to carry out a second stage in women with an additional mammaplasty especially in the presence of insufficient glandular volume or a fairly frequently associated tuberous breast.
