Over a two year period, four patients of pectus carinatum received surgical correction at our hospital. All patients were followed up for 6 months to 1 year. The operative results were satisfactory but one required revision with additional resection of bilateral second cartilage for the persistent malformation. The clinical characteristics, operative techniques and indications for operative treatment were discussed.
