摘要:	Acquired restrictive thoracic dystrophy (ARTD), a rare iatrogenic disease, is characterized by an underdeveloped thoracic cage resulting from an inappropriate surgical correction of pectus excavatum, the most common type of chest wall deformity. We describe a 29-year-old young man with ARTD, stemming from pectus excavatum correction surgery in his toddler age, who developed cor pulmonale with chronic respiratory acidosis, hypoxemia, and moderate pulmonary hypertension. His symptoms were partially ameliorated after medical treatment. Surgical correction of the chest wall was suggested, but declined because of high mortality and morbidity rates incurred by the operation.
