⚽ Is Your Teen Struggling to Keep Up in Sports?

With spring sports season starting, many teens are back on the field, track, or court. But for some athletes with Pectus Excavatum (sunken chest), exercise can feel much harder than it should.

If your teen:
🏃‍♂️ Gets winded quickly during practice
💨 Has trouble keeping up with teammates
⚽ Tires faster than expected during sports
👕 Has a noticeable indentation in the chest

…it may be more than just conditioning.

Pectus excavatum can sometimes affect heart and lung performance during exercise. The good news is that evaluation is simple, and treatment options — including the minimally invasive Nuss procedure— can significantly improve chest function, endurance, and confidence.

Dr. LoSasso has helped thousands of patients with pectus excavatum and is one of the most experienced surgeons performing this procedure.

Spring is the perfect time to schedule a consultation and learn if treatment could help your teen perform — and feel — their best.

🌟 Patients Helping Patients: Brandon & Sean’s NUSS Journey 🌟

One of the most inspiring aspects of what we do is witnessing our patients transform their own experiences into support for others.

Brandon, a physical therapist and current patient of Dr. LoSasso, underwent the NUSS procedure in February 2024. Just over a year later, he’s now helping another one of Dr. LoSasso’s patients—Sean, who had the same procedure in March 2025.

Brandon knows exactly what Sean is going through because he has walked that same path himself—from managing recovery to staying motivated. Brandon is using his knowledge—and his heart—to guide Sean through this process.

Though both are making significant progress, their journey isn’t over. They'll each have their NUSS bars removed in a few years, and until then, they’re supporting each other every step of the way.

👏 We’re proud to see this kind of connection between patients. It’s a reminder that healing isn’t just physical—it’s emotional, personal, and even inspiring.

🏥 Dr. Barry LoSasso has developed a specialized post-operative protocol designed to enhance and improve outcomes for patients after Pectus Excavatum surgery. Physical therapy plays a critical role in recovery, helping restore mobility, strength, and confidence.

Check out Noah's excellent results immediately post-op. We can't wait to see his results in the coming months! Read what Noah's family has to say:

"Dr. Losasso did an amazing job correcting our son's excavatum. He was recommended to us by Pectus Joe, and we are so thankful for his referral. Dr. LoSasso was so thorough with all the pre-surgery appointments. He kept us informed of everything step by step, so there were no surprises. All of the tests Dr. Losasso requires pre-operatively are so important, so he can give a full picture of the deformity to our insurance. Dr. LoSasso is very kind and helps to alleviate any nerves. His pain management regimen post op is fantastic. My son loves his new chest, and his lungs and heart have so much more room."
