Diaphragmatic Eventration

2021
Diaphragmatic eventration is a rare condition in which a portion of the entire diaphragm is permanently elevated, despite all the muscle insertions being intact. It differs from the hernia for the absence of continuous solutions along its entire surface.

Diaphragmatic Eventration

Thoracic Surgery Clinics, 2009
Symptomatic diaphragmatic eventration is an uncommon condition and is sometimes impossible to distinguish clinically from paralysis. Patients who are asymptomatic require no treatment; patients who are symptomatic benefit significantly from diaphragm plication. The choice of plication approach is dependent upon the expertise of the surgeon.

Diaphragmatic hernia and eventration

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 1970
Five cases of diaphragmatic abnormalities are presented, one with congenital absence of the diaphragm and herniation of the gut into the thorax, and four wtth eventration. One case of eventration was associated with malrotation of the gut with a low placed liver and gallbladder and one with a high placed right kidney.

Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia and Diaphragmatic Eventration

Clinics in Perinatology, 2017
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia can be approached successfully using minimally invasive techniques. Although there are may be a suggestion of higher recurrence rates with thoracoscopic repair, this may be due to the learning curve. However, open repair is associated with additional morbidity, most notably an increased rate of small bowel obstruction ...

Differentiating Diaphragmatic Paralysis and Eventration

Academic Radiology, 2007
Although elevation of the diaphragm can be appreciated on conventional PA and lateral chest radiography, the modality is commonly viewed as inadequate to differentiate diaphragmatic paralysis from eventration. Our objective was to qualitatively and quantitatively measure the utility of chest radiography in determining the presence or absence of ...

Diaphragmatic Eventration

2013
In general, diaphragmatic eventration (DE) is defined as abnormal elevation of all (or a portion of) an attenuated (but otherwise intact) diaphragmatic leaf [1]. The term “eventration” was used first by Becklard in 1829 (through Petit probably described the condition in 1970). Bingham described plication of the diaphragm in 1954 [2, 3].

Thoracoscopic repair of diaphragmatic eventration

Pediatric Surgery International, 2004
We report a 6-month-old child who presented with recurrent chest infections associated with a right diaphragmatic eventration. Failure in conservative management lead to thoracoscopic plication at 17 months of age and discharge on the third postoperative day. At one year followup he is completely free from all symptoms, and his chest x-ray demonstrates
