Tony was diagnosed with severe pectus excavatum, the condition was preventing him from breathing, growing, and thriving. His surgical team prepared for the challenging external splinting procedure, and it was performed successfully. The first 24 hours were critical, with risks of bleeding and lung collapse, but Tony came through beautifully.
Just five days after surgery, he had already gained half a pound and was full of energy. His follow-up X-rays looked fantastic, and Tony made a full recovery before finding his forever home.
