Sponsor's own description

Pectus excavatum (PE) or funnel breast is the most common congenital deformity of the chest wall, which occurs in about 1 in 400 births with a boy to girl ratio of 4: 1 to 3: 1. The etiology of PE is largely undefined, but there are numerous indications that genetic factors play a role in the development of PE. Up to 40% of patients report affected family members with similar congenital deformities. In many families, PE follows a pattern that would be compatible with an autosomal dominant or recessive pattern of inheritance. The data on the frequent occurrence of PE in family members fluctuate greatly and only a few genes associated with a PE have been identified so far.
