Evaluation of Respiratory Muscle Strength and Diaphragm Ultrasound: Normative Values, Theoretical Considerations, and Practical Recommendations

Respiration, 2020
Background: Reference values derived from existing diaphragm ultrasound protocols are inconsistent, and the association between sonographic measures of diaphragm function and volitional tests of respiratory muscle strength is still ambiguous.

Eventration of the diaphragm

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1974
Abstract Eventration of the diaphragm was noted in 69 children over a 20-yr period. The origin of the eventration was congenital in 48, acquired in 21. Nonoperative treatment was successful in most patients with symptomatic congenital eventration. Fourteen children with congenital eventration had operative plication.

The Diaphragm

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2010
This article discusses the diaphragm from a surgical perspective. Although it is a relatively simple organ compared with other structures, the diaphragm serves important anatomic and functional roles necessary for proper respiratory function. It is an organ of little irregularity or disease, and easily manipulated in the operating room by those who ...

Leiomyosarcoma of the diaphragm

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1999
An asymptomatic, intrathoracic mass was found on imaging studies in a 53-year-old man. After excision it proved to be an extrapulmonary leiomyosarcoma, a rare malignancy of smooth muscle, originating from the right diaphragm. The location of this malignant tumor is rare in an adult.

Angioleiomyoma of the diaphragm

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2000
We report a case of a large symptomatic angioleiomyoma of the diaphragm. The tumor was diagnosed by computed tomography and videothoracoscopic biopsy. We removed the tumor through a left thoracolaparotomy. Three months later, a local recurrence was removed through an upper midline laparotomy.

Paralysis of the Diaphragm

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1975
Diaphragmatic paralysis has been mentioned infrequently as a cause of respiratory symptoms in children. During a three-year period, diaphragmatic paralysis has occurred in 12 neonates following birth trauma (six) or thoracotomy (six) and in four older children following thoracotomy.

Evolution of Diaphragm Thickness during Mechanical Ventilation. Impact of Inspiratory Effort.

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2015
RATIONALE Diaphragm atrophy and dysfunction have been reported in humans during mechanical ventilation, but the prevalence, causes, and functional impact of changes in diaphragm thickness during routine mechanical ventilation for critically ill patients ...

Kymography of Diaphragm

Diseases of the Chest, 1953
The history of the roentgen-kimographic procedure in the study of the diaphragm, and its importance, is emphasized as an air for diagnosis; its physical basis is reviewed, and the manner of obtaining the waves is explained; the correlation of anatomy and kimographic findings is discussed.
