  2. About Pectus Disorders There are two types of pectus disorders: pectus and pectus carinatum. Pectus, while typically threatening, can affect your child’s quality of life, and in some cases their heart and lung function. To correct pectus, you have to go with brace therapy as well as the Nuss procedure. excavatum not life-

  3. Pectus Excavatum Also known as sunken chest or funnel chest, pectus excavatum is the most common of the two disorders. Defects in the cartilage that attaches the ribs to the breast bone cause a child’s chest to sink inward. This often hereditary condition occurs in about 1 out of 400 to 1,000 children. It is four times more common in boys than girls and can be detected within a year of birth, but more than half of reported cases are not found until the child reaches puberty.
