A member asked:
Why does my sternum make a popping sound with a sudden movement 4 years after cabgx4?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sternum: Your sternum was split during CABG and perhaps there is some instability at the cartilaginous junction between the rib and sternum. Your cardiothoracic surgeon is best qualified to evaluate and advise you about this matter.
