摘要
Occasionally during the minimally invasive repair of pectus excavatum (MIRPE), the conventional flat dissector is not rigid enough to elevate the anterior thoracic wall for bar implantation and its sharp edges may cause vessel or other tissue damage. As a result of experiencing such complications in four cases, a new highly rigid dissector with a round cross-section was developed and its advantages are presented in a consecutive series of 21 cases.
