Answer:
Pectus carinatum is a genetic disorder of the chest wall. It makes the chest jut out. This happens because of an unusual growth of rib and breastbone (sternum) cartilage . The bulging gives the chest a birdlike appearance. That's why the condition is sometimes called pigeon breast or pigeon chest.
