Hallo, I'm a newbie of this forum. I'm a 28 years old boy, I write from holland (please excuse my awful english). I received corrective scoliosis surgery in 1993 and now I'm waiting for a thoracoplasty to reduce the rib-hump of a 36 degrees residual thoracic scoliosis. Someone could give me some info/advice? Tell me his experience? Time of recovery, esthetic results? Shoulder position after the t.? Front, retro and lateral effect? Better or worse? Significantly? Dorsal (latissimus dorsi??) muscles position after the correction? More symmetrical? Pectoral uneveness? Some effects?
Somewhere in this forum I've read very terrifiying info's, about pain and longness of recovery time.. There is someone here who had had a less traumatic experience with this kind of surgery correction? Or three months of severe pain are the "standard"? General health one year after the thoracoplasty? Other problems? Other things to know?
Thank you for the support.. Have a nice day!
