Cervical flexion deformity (chin on chest deformity) is a complication of severe ankylosing spondylitis. This fixed posture of the cervical spine can cause significant difficulties with hygiene, nutrition, and forward gaze. Patients experience inability to open their mouth wide enough to maintain adequate nutrition, hygiene problems such as skin ulcers on the chin or chest, and problems with forward gaze leading to difficulties with ambulation. Psychosocial aspects of this deformity are also considerable. Surgical intervention includes posterior C[cervical]7–T[thoracic]1 extension osteotomy/fusion with sterile midprocedure halo placement. This procedure involves significant manipulation of the cervical spine, with possible catastrophic consequences. 2, record 4, English, - cervical%20flexion%20deformity

For breast remodeling, the plastic surgeon uses techniques similar to those used in the breast reduction surgery performed for women who experience pain or discomfort due to large breast size. This approach can yield excellent results, particularly if the tumor was located in the lower half of the breast, and is usually preferred if sufficient breast tissue remains after the partial mastectomy. To achieve symmetry, breast remodeling is usually combined with a breast reduction on the opposite side. The two surgeries are performed at the same time. 1, record 10, English, - breast%20remodeling
