Pectus carinatum

Pectus carinatum is where the extended ribs force the sternum outwards (further from the spine). Whilst this can appear visually/aesthetically odd, it does not of itself present any functional problem to the patient.

We develop medical devices that manage aortic dilation and minimise the risk of aortic dissection.
