Clinical Trial: Prospective Evaluation of Anterior Aesthetic Rib Cage Remodeling With Osteosynthesis for Lower Anterior Thoracic Prominence

U.S., Sept. 11 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07813234) titled 'Prospective Evaluation of Anterior Aesthetic Rib Cage Remodeling With Osteosynthesis for Lower Anterior Thoracic Prominence' on Sept. 01.

Brief Summary: This prospective single-group study will evaluate anterior aesthetic rib cage remodeling with osteosynthesis (ARCO) in adults with anteroinferior rib prominence or deformity. The procedure modifies and stabilizes ribs 6 through 8. Inferior rib cage perimeter, CT findings, spirometry, intraoperative respiratory variables, BODY-Q Chest scores, and complications will be assessed through 12 months.
