Abstract

The Authors report a case of chest wall malformation characterized by costal defect (6th and 7th ribs), hypoplasia of the serratus and pectoralis major muscles, left mammary ectopy and mucoviscidosis. The case is reported because of the very singular malformative association and the originality of the reparative procedure. Appearance has been improved and a good shape and breast projection achieved.
