Abstract

Background: To evaluate and to compare our results at the pectus carinatum operations. Methods: During the last 20 years period, 18 children operated on for pectus carinatum were reviewed. Boy / girl ratio was 15 / 3, mean age of identify and operation of deformity was 7.2 ± 4.4 and 8.7 ± 5.2 years, respectively. Symmetrical deformity was observed in 12 (66.7%), asymmetrical in 4 (22.2%) and mix excavatum / carinatum in 2 (11.1%) patients. Operation technique was resection of overgrown costal cartilages bilaterally and transverse sternal osteotomy. Results: Complication rate was 16.7% (pneumothorax 1, atelektasis 1, and tissue necrosis 1). Complications resolved without any sequella. Mean hospital stay was 7.6 ± 6.6 days. Deformity disappeared in all patients. Thorax bone growing was normal in follow up period of 3.1 ± 2.8 years (10 months - 6 years). Early surgical correction of carinatum deformity achieves to maintain normal skeletal growing of the thorax and prevents negative consideration of patient about self body image.

Özet

Amaç: Pektus karinatumda operasyon sonuçlarımızı değerlendirmek ve literatürle karşılaştırmak. Materyal ve Metod: 20 yıllık dönemde ameliyat edilen 18 çocuk retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi. Erkek / kız oranı 15 / 3, deformitenin farkedildiği ve ameliyat edildiği yaşlar sırasıyla 7.2 ± 4.4 ve 8.7 ± 5.2'ydi. Simetrik deformite 12 (%66.7), asimetrik deformite 4 (%22.2) ve birlikte ekskavatum / karinatum deformitesi 2 hastada (%11.1) görüldü. Operasyon tekniği, aşırı gelişmiş kosta kartilajlarının bilateral rezeksiyonu ve transvers sternum osteotomisiydi. Bulgular: Komplikasyon oranı %16.7 oldu (pnömotoraks 1, atelektazi 1, doku nekrozu 1). Komplikasyonlar sekelsiz düzeldi. Hastanede kalış süresi ortalama 7.6 ± 6.6 gün oldu. Bütün hastalarda deformite tam olarak düzeldi. Ortalama 3.1 ± 2.8 yıllık (10 ay - 6 yıl) izlemde toraks kemik gelişimi normal oldu. Sonuç: Karinatum deformitesinin erken düzeltilmesi toraks yapısının normal gelişimine devamını sağlar ve hastanın kendi vücut imajı hakkındaki olumsuz düşüncesini önler.
