NCT ID NCT07167810

Summary

This study compared two materials used to rebuild the chest wall after surgery to remove tumors. Researchers tested whether flexible stainless steel wires or a rigid bone cement (PMMA) worked better for controlling pain and helping patients breathe normally after surgery. The goal was to find a more effective and affordable reconstruction method, especially for patients in areas with limited healthcare resources.
