First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study compares two ways to rebuild the chest wall after removing a tumor: using twisted steel wires versus bone cement. The goal is to see which method causes less pain, helps breathing better, and has fewer complications. About 50 adults needing chest wall reconstruction will take part, and results will help choose the best option, especially in low-resource settings.
