Filatov Children’s Hospital has great experience in the surgical correction of pectus excavatum in children. For 22 years, &gt;1000 minimally invasive repair procedures of pectus excavatum were performed in the thoracic surgery department. Despite the satisfactory and excellent outcomes of the surgical correction of pectus excavatum, the search for alternative nonsurgical methods of treating this pathology continues. In world practice, a vacuum bell is used as a conservative treatment. However, its effectiveness and indications are still in question.</p> <p><bold><italic>AIM:</italic> </bold>To evaluate the first experience of using a vacuum bell in the treatment of pectus excavatum in children.</p> <p><bold><italic>MATERIALS AND METHODS:</italic> </bold>A vacuum bell is a device consisting of sight glass, silicone ring, and manual pump, lifting chest wall deformities through a vacuum. The device is selected individually depending on the growth and shape of the ventral surface of the chest. According to instructions, the vacuum bell should be used a minimum of 1 h per day. All patients underwent a standardized assessment of the results of treatment every 3–6 months: measuring the depth of deformation, visual treatment control, analysis of photo documentation, and questionnaires.</p> <p><bold><italic>RESULTS:</italic></bold> In the N.F. Filatov Children’s Hospital from 2015 to 2021, treatment results of 35 children using vacuum bell for 6–36 months were analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups depending on the percentage of deformation correction. The first group included 23 (65.7%) patients, and the percentage of correction was &gt;50%. The second group included 12 (34.3%) patients, and the percentage of correction was &lt;50%. In these groups, the main differences in the age of treatment initiation, regularity of use, and time of daily use have influenced the results. In the first and second groups, the average ages were 8.7 ± 2.69 and 13.7 ± 3.56 years, and the average daily use times were 5.7 ± 2.04 and 3.6 ± 1.61 h/day, respectively.</p> <p><bold>CONCLUSIONS:</bold> Vacuum bell therapy is an effective and safe method for correcting pectus excavatum in children, and in some cases, it can be an alternative to surgical treatments.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p><italic>Актуальность</italic>. На сегодняшний день Детская больница им. Н.Ф. Филатова обладает большим опытом хирургической коррекции воронкообразной деформации грудной клетки у детей. На базе ее торакального отделения за 22 года выполнено более 1000 торакопластик по Нассу. Несмотря на удовлетворительные и отличные результаты хирургической коррекции, продолжается поиск альтернативных безоперационных способов лечения этой патологии. В мировой практике широко используется консервативная терапия с помощью вакуумного колокола Vacuum Bell. Однако вопрос об эффективности и показаниях к его использованию остается открытым.</p> <p><bold><italic>Цель</italic> </bold>— оценить первый опыт использования вакуумного колокола в лечении воронкообразной деформации грудной клетки у детей.</p> <p><bold><italic>Материалы и методы. </italic></bold>Vacuum Bell — это устройство, состоящее из смотрового стекла, силиконового кольца и ручного насоса (резиновая груша), поднимающее деформированную грудную клетку посредством вакуума. Подбор устройств осуществляется индивидуально в зависимости от роста и формы вентральной поверхности грудной клетки. Согласно инструкции, вакуумный колокол следует использовать ежедневно минимум 1 ч в день. Всем пациентам проводили стандартизированную оценку результатов лечения каждые 3–6 мес.: измерение глубины деформации, визуальный контроль лечения, анализ фотодокументации, анкетирование.</p> <p><bold><italic>Результаты.</italic></bold> На базе Детской больницы им. Н.Ф. Филатова в 2015–2021 гг. был проведен анализ результатов лечения 35 детей, использовавших вакуумный колокол в течение 6–36 мес. Пациенты были разделены на две группы в зависимости от процента коррекции деформации. В первую группу вошло 23 пациента (65,7 %), процент коррекции у которых составил &gt;50 %. Во вторую группу — 12 пациентов (34,3 %), процент коррекции составил &lt;50 %. Основными различиями в данных группах, повлиявшими на результат, стали возраст начала лечения, регулярность применения и время ежедневного использования. В первой группе средний возраст составил 8,7 ± 2,69 года, время ежедневного применения в среднем 5,7 ± 2,04 ч/сут; во второй группе — 13,7 ± 3,56 года, время ежедневного применения в среднем 3,6 ± 1,61 ч/сут.</p> <p><bold><italic>Выводы.</italic></bold> Терапия Vacuum Bell — эффективный и безопасный способ коррекции воронкообразной деформации у детей, который может в ряде случаев выступать альтернативой хирургическому методу лечения.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Pectus excavatum</kwd><kwd>conservative treatment</kwd><kwd>vacuum bell</kwd><kwd>minimally invasive repair of pectus excavatum</kwd><kwd>children</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>воронкообразная деформация грудной клетки</kwd><kwd>консервативное лечение</kwd><kwd>вакуумный колокол</kwd><kwd>Vacuum Bell</kwd><kwd>торакопластика по Нассу</kwd><kwd>дети</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Kelly AM, Frauenfelder T.
