      Background: There are various reconstructive methods after total sternectomy. Reproducibility is scarce due to overall small patient numbers. Therefore we present a standardized, interdisciplinary approach for thoracic and plastic surgery.
      Methods: Four patients underwent interdisciplinary chest wall reconstruction with STRATOS® titanium bars and myocutaneous vastus lateralis muscle free flap in our center.
      Results: All patients reported chest wall stability after reconstruction. They reported good quality of life, no dyspnea, prolonged pain or impairment in lung function from rigid reconstruction. FEV1/FVC was overall better after surgery. Secondary wound healing was not impaired and there was no implant defect in follow up.
      Conclusions: We recommend an interdisciplinary surgical approach in chest wall reconstruction after total sternectomy. The combination of rigid reconstruction with titanium bars and a myocutaneous vastus lateralis muscle free flap renders excellent results in patient satisfaction and is objectifiable via spirometry.
