description | Asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy is an extremely rare and complex thoracic deformity, and its operation is challenging.

We designed a new surgical technique that combines median thoracic expansion with Nuss procedure, and we applied this technique to a 1-year-old patient with asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy and achieved satisfactory results. |
