Adults are increasingly seeking surgical correction of pectus excavatum deformity, and the alternative custom-made silicone implant is not always desired or suitable. The paramount concern of female patients is the apparent strabism of their breasts. In some cases, the standard minimally invasive reconstruction of pectus excavatum procedure or a modified approach with a semiopen technique can help remodel the anterior thoracic wall and simultaneously reposition the female breasts to a desired and aesthetically acceptable position.
