Automatic prebent customized prosthesis for pectus excavatum minimally invasive...
Vilaça, João L.; Rodrigues, Pedro L.; Soares, Tony R.; Fonseca, Jaime; Pinho, ACM; Henriques-Coelho, Tiago; Correia-Pinto, JorgePectus excavatum is the most common deformity of the thorax. A minimally invasive surgical correction is commonly carried out to remodel the anterior chest wall by using an intrathoracic convex prosthesis in the substernal position. The process of prosthesis modeling and bending still remains an area of improvement. The authors developed a new system, i3DExcavatum, which can automatically model and bend the bar...
Automatic modeling of an orthotic bracing for nonoperative correction of Pectus...
Vila, João L.; Rodrigues, Pedro L.; Moreira, António H. J.; Fonseca, Jaime C.; F. Rodrigues, NunoPectus Carinatum is a deformity of the chest wall, characterized by an anterior protrusion of the sternum, often corrected surgically due to cosmetic motivation. This work presents an alternative approach to the current open surgery option, proposing a novel technique based on a personalized orthosis. Two different processes for the orthosis’ personalization are presented. One based on a 3D laser scan of the pa...

Variations of the soft tissue thicknesses external to the ribs in pectus excava...
Moreira, António H. J.; Pinto, Jorge Correia; Fonseca, Jaime C.; Vilaça, João L.; Rodrigues, Pedro L.; Pinho, A. C. Marques de; Rodrigues, Nuno F.BACKGROUND: Surgical repair of pectus excavatum (PE) has become more popular due to improvements in the minimally invasive Nuss procedure. The pre-surgical assessment of PE patients requires Computerized Tomography (CT), as the malformation characteristics vary from patient to patient. OBJECTIVE: This work aims to characterize soft tissue thickness (STT) external to the ribs among PE patients. It also presents ...
Virtual simulation of the postsurgical cosmetic outcome in patientswith pectus ...
Vilaça, João L.; Moreira, António H. J.; L-Rodrigues, Pedro; F. Rodrigues, Nuno; Fonseca, Jaime C.; Correia-Pinto, JorgePectus excavatum is the most common congenital deformity of the anterior chest wall, in which several ribs and the sternum grow abnormally. Nowadays, the surgical correction is carried out in children and adults through Nuss technic. This technic has been shown to be safe with major drivers as cosmesis and the prevention of psychological problems and social stress. Nowadays, no application is known to predict t...
