A Review of Anesthetic Considerations and Postoperative Pain Control after the Nuss Procedure

The Nuss procedure is named after Dr. Donald Nuss, who pioneered his technique for the repair of Pectus Excavatum in the late 1990 ’s. In 1998, he published his 10-year experience with the minimally invasive repair [1]. Since then, hospitals across the world have adopted this method of repair for Pectus Excavatum, also known as Minimally Invasive Repair of Pectus Excavatum (MIRPE).
