New York City, NY - Children and teenagers who suffer from a condition called funnel chest, or pectus excavatum, in which the chest wall becomes caved-in, now have a safe, effective and simpler surgical alternative to correct the condition, according to an article in a recent issue of the Annals of Thoracic Surgery. The new technique reconstructs the chest wall in one operation by using plastic mesh bands instead of a metal plate with a body brace, said Jeffrey Gold, MD, Cardiothoracic Surgeon at Montefiore Medical Center and senior author of the article. And, the bands do not have to be removed, because the body heals around them.

[Japanese] Nippon Kyobu Geka Gakkai Zasshi - Journal of the Japanese Association for Thoracic Surgery. 39(6):943-7, 1991 Jun. One-year-old girl was admitted because of recurrent pneumonia and pectus excavatum. Chest X-ray showed hyperlucency at the upper lung field and infiltrated shadow at the lower field of the left lung. Bronchoscopy and bronchograms revealed marked collapse in a long segment of the left main bronchus during expiration. CT scan showed an emphysematous change and a giant bulla of left lung. Angiogram showed right aortic arch. Sternoturnover was performed at 5 years of age for pectus excavatum. After 10 months, left pneumonectomy was performed for bronchomalacia and lobar emphysema. Pathologic findings of the bronchus revealed that the rings were flattened, while the cartilage was microscopically normal. Aorta, Thoracic/ab [Abnormalities]

In case you don't know, it's when you constantly stop breathing in your sleep and wind up only getting a couple good hours of sleep each night. I had a sleep study done and during that 6 hour period I stopped breathing 33 times! I had the surgery on Friday and it's still killing me. For one, I can barely talk. Second, it hurts to swallow, even liquid, but I'm still drinking a gallon of water a day. Third, it just hurts, period. They gave me Oxycotin, but it just makes me dizzy and sleepy, and does not stop the pain. And ever since I had the surgery, I've had the worst headaches! I mean badder than bad.
