    Children with pectus excavatum before the age of years have a delicate thoracic structure and are prone to complications after surgery. If the child has more severe clinical symptoms, such as upper respiratory tract infection caused by pectus excavatum compression of the chest cavity, surgery is still appropriate for children over 3 years of age. 4. pectus excavatum usually worsens with age, and it is easy to evolve into moderate or severe pectus excavatum, and patients will have asymmetrical depression of the chest wall, sternal torsion, scoliosis, flat chest and other deformities.
