Popis: Resection and reconstruction of the chest wall for the radical surgical treatment of malignant soft tissue tumors are currently considered a substantial challenge for thoracic surgeons. We present an unusual case of infantile fibrosarcoma with tropomyosin 3-neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase 1 fusion in a 13-year-old patient. The surgical treatment consisted of radical resection of the right posterior chest wall and reconstruction with the use of the STRATOS (Strasbourg Thoracic Osteosynthesis System) titanium rib bridge system. The patient had a favorable postoperative course and received respiratory-ventilatory rehabilitation, adjuvant therapy with chemotherapeutic agents, immunotherapy, and radiotherapy.
