Breast Implants with Nuss Procedure?

Thank you for the question.  Although specific recommendations can only be made after in person consultation, generally speaking, it is usually safe to proceed with breast augmentation surgery for patients who have undergone the Nuss procedure. Must be taken, in the event that exposed wires are present, to avoid postoperative problems such as breast implant leakage etc.  You may find the attached link, discussing breast augmentation procedures for patients with pectus excavatum, helpful to you.
 Best wishes.

The metal bars from the Nuss procedure lie under the ribcage while breast implants are placed on top of it. So there is no problem in getting breast implants whether the metal bars remain or not. While removal of the bars could be done at the time of breast augmentation, coordinating two different surgeons and getting it done in a hospital setting may be a challenge.

Your bars have been in for 9 years.  I am not an expert in this procedure but recurrence of your Pectus is unlikely if you were to have the bars removed. It is unusual to leave these bars in place for longer than 4 years.  An augmentation can be performed with the bars in place.  I would consult a chest surgeon concerning removal of these bars.
