Popis: Functional disorders of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems with pectus excavatum (CFD) have attracted close attention of specialists for a long time. Modern examination methods based on the use of new diagnostic equipment allow obtaining more and more objective criteria for assessing these disorders. However, there are still no clear relationships between the degree of deformity and the severity of cardiorespiratory disorders. Therefore, indications for thoracoplasty are made for cosmetic or other subjective reasons, which is unacceptable in relation to such a complex surgical intervention.
