Pectus Carinatum Surgery

When pigeon chest does not respond to bracing or has stiffened, the protrusion is corrected with reverse Nuss or modified Ravitch, chosen by chest structure.

HIGHLIGHTS

What stands out in this treatment

Non-surgical Option First

Chest wall flexibility is measured at examination; surgery is not offered first when bracing can still correct the chest.

Minimally Invasive Reverse Nuss

In suitable patients a bar is placed in front of the breastbone, pressing the protrusion inward and holding it in place.

Open Repair for Mixed Deformity

For asymmetric and mixed deformity, modified Ravitch removes excess cartilage and reshapes the breastbone.

One-stop Coordination

Tests, surgery and admission are gathered in one schedule; the international patient team arranges travel and stay.

Transparent, Guaranteed Pricing

A written quote follows once the method is chosen; unless the plan changes, no surprise costs appear later.

Insurance & agreements

Transparent payment with contracted institutions and private insurers, at home and abroad.

Accommodation & rooms

Companion-friendly modern patient rooms and in-city accommodation support.

International patient services

Visa, airport transfer and 24/7 multilingual medical interpreters.

Transparent, guaranteed price

A quote prepared from your medical information; no extra charge for the treatments it covers.
