Chest wall reconstruction is a surgical procedure performed to repair or rebuild the bony and soft tissue structures of the chest wall. This type of surgery is typically needed in cases of trauma, cancer, infection, congenital anomalies, or other conditions that have damaged or removed a portion of the chest wall. The goal of chest wall reconstruction is to restore chest wall integrity, function, and appearance.
Chest wall reconstruction is a complex procedure that requires careful planning and consideration of the patient's overall health and specific condition. The choice of reconstruction technique and the success of the surgery depend on the expertise of the surgical team and the unique characteristics of each case.
