Pediatric anterior thoracic wall reconstruction: a successful case of extensive resection and repair
Thoracic tumors are a challenge for pediatric surgeons. They comprise a heterogeneous group of neoplasms classified based on histological variety, location, presentation, biological behavior, treatment response, and prognosis. Primary tumors of the thoracic wall in children and adolescents are sporadic, accounting for only 1–2% of all pediatric thoracic neoplasms, with two-thirds of them being malignant. We present the case of a 16-year-old male patient with osteoblastic osteosarcoma localized in the right anterior rib cage. The patient underwent extensive tumor resection using titanium bars. Thoracic reconstruction following extensive resection in pediatric cancer patients has been underexplored and poorly described. Nevertheless, it has been demonstrated to be feasible, particularly considering the 5-year survival rate of 60% following tumor resection. This approach helps prevent anatomical and physiological complications that may arise without reconstruction. We report a successful single-stage resection and thoracic reconstruction case in a pediatric patient. This case underscores the importance of considering reconstruction in patients with thoracic tumors, as it can contribute to improving prognosis and preventing associated complications.
期刊介绍:
The Gazette is the official journal of the Egyptian Pediatric Association. The main purpose of the Gazette is to provide a place for the publication of high-quality papers documenting recent advances and new developments in both pediatrics and pediatric surgery in clinical and experimental settings. An equally important purpose of the Gazette is to publish local and regional issues related to children and child care. The Gazette welcomes original papers, review articles, case reports and short communications as well as short technical reports. Papers submitted to the Gazette are peer-reviewed by a large review board. The Gazette also offers CME quizzes, credits for which can be claimed from either the EPA website or the EPA headquarters. Fields of interest: all aspects of pediatrics, pediatric surgery, child health and child care. The Gazette complies with the Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts submitted to biomedical journals as recommended by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE).
