Correction of Secondary Chest Wall Deformity After Bentall and Sternal Turnover Procedures: Modified Wang and Wenlin Procedures

View through CrossRef
ABSTRACTSecondary chest wall deformities are usually more complex and difficult to correct than primary deformities, especially the secondary chest wall deformity after cardiovascular surgery. This occurs because the severe adhesions in the mediastinum, the risk of bleeding, and the complexity of the deformity increase the difficulty of correcting the deformity. However, by combining the modified Wang procedure and Wenlin procedure, we can overcome these shortcomings.
