Pectus deformities in children: a pictorial review
摘要
Pediatric chest wall deformities, such as pectus excavatum (PE), carinatum (PC), and arcuatum (PA), may result in psychosocial and cardiorespiratory morbidity. Pediatric radiologists play a key role in imaging-based characterization, preoperative assessment, and the evaluation of postoperative complications. This pictorial essay highlights key imaging characteristics, indices for surgical planning, and common postoperative findings for pectus deformities.
