Abstract

A 17-year-old female had undergone two failed pectus excavatum repairs using the Nuss technique. Each time the bar had shifted, one time displacing the heart. Revision surgery was carried out using the Erlangen technique, which proved to be a safe and successful method to remove the displaced bar and correct the pectus excavatum.
