Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the safety and feasibility of the Nuss procedure in young patients with pectus excavatum who had prior intrathoracic surgeries, focusing on outcomes and complications.
- Six patients, aged 4-9, underwent the repair between April 2010 and December 2013, with results showing a mean operation time of about 127.5 minutes and mostly uneventful postoperative courses.
- Overall, the findings suggest that previous intrathoracic surgery does not prevent the use of the Nuss procedure, though careful monitoring of complications is essential during both bar insertion and removal.

The incidence of TRALI is reported to be 1 in 2000 to 5000 transfusions. When combined with uncontrollable bleeding, survival is unachievable.
