Treatment of pectus excavatum recurring after open surgery using Nuss procedure: A case report

Ravitch cerrahisi sonrası 10 yıl sonra nüks eden pectus ekskavatumlu 14 yaşında erkek olguyu Nuss tekniği ile başarılı bir şekilde opere ettiğimizi bildirmek istedik. Hastaya Nuss tekniği ile pektus ekskavatum operasyonu yapıldı. Postoperatif 5. gün hasta taburcu edildi. Postoperatif 3. yılında barı çıkarılması planlanmaktadır. Sonuç olarak açık cerrahi sonrası nükseden pektus ekskavatum cerrahisi riskli bir operasyondur. Minimal invaziv teknik olan Nuss operasyonu rekürren vakalarda kısa operasyon süresi ve minimal kan kaybı ile beraber başarılı bir şekilde uygulanan güvenli bir tekniktir.

Açık cerrahi sonrası nükseden pektus ekskavatumun Nuss tekniği ile tedavisi: Bir olgu sunumu

We would like to report a 14-year-old male patient with pectus excavatum that recurred 10 years later after Ravitch surgery who was successfully operated using Nuss procedure. The patient underwent pectus excavatum surgery using Nuss procedure. The patient was discharged from the hospital at post-operative 5.day. The bar is planned to be removed in post-operative 3.year. In conclusion, surgery of pectus excavatum that recurred after open surgery is risky. Nuss procedure, which is a minimally-invasive technique, is a safe procedure that can be successfully applied in recurring cases due to short time of surgery and minimal blood loss.
