No you cannot die from a pectus deformity itself as the heart and the lungs adapt to suit the deformity however pectus deformity patients do have an increased risk of heart attack and stroke and may struggle with sport and will have to cut down on it. There are surgical procedures that paatients with the disease can have done to sort this out or they can learn to live a life with it.
