Thoracic reconstruction represents a surgical challenge. Often, the deffects are not only large, but also complex, involving all layers of the thoracic wall. The authors reviewed the medical records of the patients who underwent thoracic reconstruction, operated in cooperation with the Cardiothoracic Surgery Department, between 1998 and 2008, in Coimbra University Hospital, Portugal.
