The efficacy of surgical rehabilitation of patients with chronic osteomyelitis of the sternum is shown. Surgical treatment was divided in most cases into two stages: removal of the involved areas of the sternum and adjoining ribs and fixed muscular or musculocutaneous plastics. The obtained results are reassuring and promote further development of surgery of this region.
