Diaphragmatic Plication for Patients with Acute Phase Phrenic Nerve Paralysis Following Lung Transplantation: A Case Report
Phrenic nerve injury can occur as a complication of lung transplantation. A 54-year-old man underwent single-lung transplantation due to interstitial pneumonia. The patient required circulatory support with venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and was unable to be weaned from ventilatory support with nitric oxide. Although enhanced CT scanning showed stenotic anastomosis of the righ...
متن کاملPhrenic nerve injury after paediatric heart surgery: is aggressive plication of the diaphragm beneficial?
OBJECTIVES Phrenic nerve injury after paediatric heart surgery is associated with significant morbidity. Surgical plication of the diaphragm is believed to be beneficial to the patient, with difficult weaning from ventilation; however, the optimal timing remains unclear. We aimed to compare the outcome after two different strategies for treating hemidiaphragmatic paresis. METHODS A retrospect...
متن کاملPost cardiac surgery phrenic nerve palsy: value of plication and potential for recovery.
OBJECTIVES Evaluation of an aggressive policy for the treatment of phrenic nerve palsy (PNP), following cardiac operations, with emphasis on early diaphragmatic plication. Attention was given to the incidence and predisposing factors for PNP and the potential for recovery following plication. METHODS From 1 June 1991 to 1 January 1996 we prospectively screened patients for PNP following cardi...
متن کاملRisk Factors of post-Cardiac Surgery Diaphragmatic Paralysis in Children with Congenital Heart Disease
Background: Injured phrenic nerve secondary to cardiac surgeries is the most common cause of diaphragmatic paralysis (DP) in infants. The aim of this study was to determine the risk factors for DP caused by congenital heart defect corrective surgeries in pediatrics. Methods: This cross-sectional study, conducted in a 2-year period (2006–2008), included 451 children with congenital heart disease...
