Plastron-trapdoor technique for direct-vision sternal re-entry.

Abstract

Repeat median sternotomy does not allow good access for retrosternal re-entry. Conversely, by using the plastron-trapdoor technique, which we describe in this report, the retrosternal tissues are dissected from the body of the sternum under direct vision, thus allowing relatively safe and wide exposure for retrosternal re-entry.
