RESUMO
Chest wall and spine deformities are common in Marfan syndrome, and often coexist with cardiac defects. Surgery is often needed to both the aortic root and the anterior chest wall, and early spinal surgery is not uncommon. We describe a case of severe thoracic cage deformity with aortic root dilatation, which was managed by a staged approach, with a very good final result.
