Method The patient was extubated in 6 hours after the operation. During next two days progressive dyspnea was observed and patient became ventilation dependent. Six attempts to wean patient from ventilator failed. Elevation of diaphragm up to the 3rd rib have been registered. Since there was no improvement after respiratory muscle training, plication of the hemidiaphragm was performed by a left thoracotomy.
