Diaphragm pacing is an established mode of ventilation for patients with upper motor neuron injury and preserved phrenic nerve function. Careful patient evaluation with regard to phrenic nerve function, motivation, and adequate psychosocial support is paramount for successful pacing.

Primary tumors of the diaphragm are rare, and more than half are benign. Diaphragmatic tumors arise from mesenchymal tissue because of their mesodermal origin, and all varieties of these tumors have been reported. An interesting paraphenomenon is hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, most commonly seen in tumors of neurogenic origin.

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.

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 ...

Angioleiomyoma of the diaphragm
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2000We 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.

The diaphragm is a chief muscle of inspiration. Its paralysis can lead to dyspnea and can affect ventilatory function. Diaphragmatic paralysis can be unilateral or bilateral. The clinical symptoms are more prominent in bilateral diaphragm paralysis. Ventilatory failure and cor pulmonale are usually seen in severe cases.

Pseudorupture of the diaphragm
Injury, 1994A 57-year-old man attended the Accident and Emergency Department having fallen 2-3 ft (0.6-0.9 m) from a ladder and injured the left side of his chest. He was complaining of increasing shortness of breath and left-sided chest pain on inspiration. Clinical examination revealed mild dyspnoea and tenderness over the lower left ribs. He was noted to have a

EVENTRATION of the diaphragm is a congenital aplasia, either partial or complete, of this muscular organ. It permits the protrusion of the abdominal viscera into the chest, displacing the lung and in severer cases the heart and mediastinum. It is a condition which has been recognized for many years, since Petit1gave an accurate description in 1774 ...
