Abstract
Surgical correction of anterior thoracic wall deformities is an extensive procedure with considerable operative trauma. The procedure can be markedly supported by means of preoperative 3D spiral-computed tomography for the purpose of improved preoperative planning in order to avoid unnecessary tissue mobilization. It is also helpful to enhance the patients' comprehension regarding the operative requirements.Entities:
