We present a report on two monozygotic female twins who underwent a left-sided intercostal thoracotomy in the second month of life for pulmonary artery sling correction. Twenty-four years later, in adulthood, the identical twins had both developed right-sided thoracic scoliosis. No previous accounts of scoliosis development after intercostal thoracotomy for pulmonary artery sling correction have been reported.
我们报告了一对同卵双胞胎女性的病例，她们在出生后第二个月接受了左侧肋间胸廓切开术以矫正肺动脉吊带。二十四年后，成年后的这对同卵双胞胎都患上了右侧胸椎脊柱侧凸。此前尚无关于肺动脉吊带矫正术的肋间胸廓切开术后发生脊柱侧凸的报道。
