Operative stabilization of flail chest using a prosthetic mesh and methylmethacrylate.
Surgical stabilization of flail chest is a controversial operation, but recent data has shown that selected patients benefit from it. We describe a simple and practical method of operative stabilization of flail chest using a prosthetic mesh and methylmethacrylate anchored to the ribs and sternum. The methylmethacrylate-mesh complex is inexpensive, can be extracted electively as soon as full thoracic stability is achieved, and can be used to stabilize extended chest wall injuries.
