Thoracic posture-related morphological changes in patients with pectus excavatum versus healthy controls
The minimum anterior-posterior diameter is shorter in the upright position. This may explain the worsening of cardiopulmonary symptoms in patients with severe pectus excavatum when in an upright position.Clinical trial registration number: UMIN000036438 https://center6.umin.ac.jp/cgi-open-bin/ctr_e/ctr_view.cgi?recptno=R000041519.
