Frequently Asked Questions

Vacuum Bell Treatment is a non-surgical approach used to treat a condition known as pectus excavatum, which is a chest wall deformity where the breastbone (sternum) is sunken into the chest. In this treatment, a device called a vacuum bell is utilized.

The vacuum bell is a dome-shaped device made of silicone or other flexible materials. It is placed over the depressed area of the chest.

The vacuum bell is connected to a vacuum pump. When applied to the chest, the pump removes the air from within the bell, creating a negative pressure or suction.

The negative pressure created by the vacuum bell lifts the depressed sternum and adjacent chest wall tissues. This process aims to gradually reshape the chest over time.

A pectus carinatum brace, also known as an orthosis, is a device used in the treatment of pectus carinatum deformity. Pectus carinatum is a chest wall deformity where the sternum and ribs protrude outward. The brace is designed to apply pressure to the protruding area with the goal of reshaping the chest over time.

It is designed to apply specific pressure to the protruding areas of the chest while allowing for normal chest expansion during breathing.

The "Nuss procedure" is a surgical technique used to correct a chest wall deformity called pectus excavatum. In this procedure, a curved metal bar, often referred to as the "Pectus bar," is inserted beneath the sternum to reshape the chest.
