Chest Wall Deformities Beyond the Chest Wall
Pectus excavatum (PE) and pectus carinatum (PC) are chest wall deformities that may influence respiratory function, physical capacity, posture, and quality of life. This observational, cross-sectional study aims to provide a comprehensive and multidimensional evaluation of children with PE and PC and compare their findings with healthy controls. By examining multiple aspects of respiratory and physical function, postural characteristics, and quality of life, the study seeks to provide a broader understanding of the overall impact of these deformities.

Prognosis Factors for the Treatment of Pectus Carinatum With a Dynamic Compression System
Pectus carinatum is a deformation of the thoracic wall causing an aesthetic prejudice. Since 2011, our team uses a dynamic compression system to treat this deformation. It is a harness that the patient wears all day long for an average duration of 1 year, and that remodels the chest by exerting a moderate pressure on it. The local cohort is one of the largest in the world. The few previous publications have shown the validity of this method, but the prognosis factors for success of this innovative treatment are not yet identified.

Physiological Assessments During Non Operative Treatment on the Chest Wall Deformities
The physiological assessment in non-operative treatment on chest wall deformities, are still unclear today. These functional benefits outweigh the aesthetic benefits associated with anatomical improvement. The functional benefits, ventilation, hemodynamic and neurologic, have never been evaluated. Assessment of Effects on parasympathetic activity of the autonomic nervous system, global health criterion measured by noninvasive methods. Anatomic evaluation, between the initial and final assessment by objective measures 1) of the chest wall by MRI, and 2) of the heart by echocardiography. Noninvasive physiological assessment at rest and during exercise in respiratory function exploration flows and volumes, cardiac function by flow measurement, and overall metabolic function test effort (VO2max). Subjective assessment of functional gain between the initial and final balance sheet, based on EVA scales, valued by patients, parents and doctors.
