Recurrent lung collapse due to unidentified phrenic nerve injury after cardiac surgery.
Partial or complete recurrent lung collapse after cardiac surgery is one cause of failure to wean from ventilator support, and frequently leads to multiple reintubations and prolonging intensive care unit and hospital stays. A 79-year-old female underwent uneventful coronary artery bypass surgery and was extubated on the first postoperative day (POD). On POD 2, a routine portable chest X-ray (C...

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 کاملPhrenic Nerve Injury After Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation
UNLABELLED Phrenic Nerve Injury (PNI) has been well studied by cardiac surgeons. More recently it has been recognized as a potential complication of catheter ablation with a prevalence of 0.11 to 0.48 % after atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. This review will focus on PNI after AF ablation. Anatomical studies have shown a close relationship between the right phrenic nerve and it's proximity to...
