Cleidocranial dysplasia is an autosomal skeletal disorder resulting from delayed or abnormal ossification of bony growth. Pectus excavatum independently presented in a 9-year-old boy with cleidocranial dysplasia and was corrected using the Nuss procedure. There were no perioperative complications, and the post-operative course was uneventful. Although there were concerns regarding extraordinary late consolidation or remodeling of the bony thorax, placement of a Nuss plate for 5 years and 6 months improved the patient's concave deformity without re-depression.
