Effects of Pectus Excavatum on the Spine of Pectus Excavatum Patients with Scoliosis
Figure 1
Demonstration of measurements made using Mimics on computer. The Haller index is calculated by T/A and asymmetry index by R/L100. The sternal torsion angle is marked and represents moderate degree of torsion (+24.9°). All measurements were measured at maximum distances except for A, which was measured as the minimum distance between the anterior surface of the vertebral column and the deepest portion of the sternum.
