First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at two methods for rebuilding the chest wall after removing a tumor: using a rigid bone cement (PMMA) or flexible steel wires. 76 patients were included, and researchers measured pain and chest wall stability. The goal is to find which technique leads to better recovery and less discomfort.
