Figure 2. Stable morphologic changes occurring in
correlation with increased chest expansion. The photographs are of the
patient’s back while in a relaxed standing position and show an
apparent increase in the breadth of the upper back in January 1993
(top left, A) and November 1995
(top right, B). Casual photographs show
morphologic changes in the anterior chest in July 1995 (middle
left, C) and July 1998 (middle
right, D). Photographs of the patient’s back
while in a relaxed standing position in November 1995 (bottom
left, E) and November 1999 (bottom
right, F) show a visual improvement in the
appearance of thoracic lordosis.
