About two years ago I had several major surgeries on my chest to fix what is called a pectus excavatum. Google it to see some examples...
My chest is looking a lot better after the surgery, but there is still a depression towards to top of my chest. I was wondering if there are any specific exercises I could do to help build it up and make my chest a little bigger. Thanks!!

i really dont know about the surgery thing,, if itd okay for you to get back to training. then id suggest incline bench or dumbell press. and an extra is to do the arnold shoulder press( seated shoulder press) in order to bulk up that area. also work on your traps to give that area more mass and definition. BUT for the chest im sure its the incline bench
wish you the best

close grip pulldowns and incline are the best i've found for upper chest....just a quick question though?? have you been tested for marfan's syndrome?? Reason i ask is one of my best friends was diagnosed with it...and had similar issues...but typically marfan's patients are very tall (my friend is 6'9) anyway thought i'd ask...wish ya the best in your rehab.
