What is a Carinatum?
Pectus carinatum is a condition in which your sternum (breastbone) sticks out more than usual. Some people call it “pigeon chest” or “keel chest” because of how it makes your chest look. It's the opposite of pectus excavatum, in which your breastbone is depressed inward and gives your chest a sunken appearance.
