pubmed:abstractText |
Lateral thoracic expansion is a procedure that has been described to enlarge the thoracic cage in patients with Jeune's asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy. The procedure involves separating ribs from their periosteum and plating them together in an expanded fashion with titanium struts. We have speculated that the ribs heal in this situation, despite the absence of surrounding periosteum, and that new rib formation occurs in the liberated periosteum.
