Ectopia cordis is a challenging congenital anomaly that generally has defied repair because of the magnitude of the deformity and the associated defects, particularly the intracardiac anomalies. We were fortunate to be presented with a boy who had successfully undergone an operation on the day of his birth to provide skin coverage over his bare ectopic heart. Subsequent studies disclosed no intracardiac anomalies. This paper describes the second stage of his repair designed to place the heart within the thorax and construct a bony shield anterior to it.
心脏异位是一种具有挑战性的先天性畸形，由于畸形的严重程度以及相关缺陷，尤其是心脏内的异常，通常难以修复。我们很幸运地遇到了一个男孩，他在出生当天就成功接受了手术，为裸露的异位心脏提供皮肤覆盖。随后的检查未发现心脏内有异常。本文描述了他修复手术的第二阶段，旨在将心脏置于胸腔内并在其前方构建一个骨性屏障。
