Complete Sternal Cleft is obviously a rare congenital malformation, except as a part of superior celosomy (Cantrell's Syndrome). Such a case is reported, who was operated on eight days after birth. The operation was done by taking off the skin over the pericardium and tightening both hemi-sternum, with non-absorbable material. Short-term and long-term post-operative course was uneventfull. We think positive pressure ventilation is needed only for some days. Results are better and surgery easier when performed shortly after birth.
完全性胸骨裂显然是一种罕见的先天性畸形，除非作为高位胸腹裂（坎特雷尔综合征）的一部分。本文报告了这样一例病例，患儿出生8天后接受了手术。手术方法是切除心包上方的皮肤，并用不可吸收材料收紧两侧半胸骨。术后短期和长期病程均顺利。我们认为仅需进行数天的正压通气。出生后不久进行手术，效果更好且操作更简便。
