Phrenic nerve paralysis and phrenic nerve reconstruction surgery
2022Phrenic nerve injury results in paralysis of the diaphragm muscle, the primary generator of an inspiratory effort, as well as a stabilizing muscle involved in postural control and spinal alignment. Unilateral deficits often result in exertional dyspnea, orthopnea, and sleep-disordered breathing, whereas oxygen or ventilator dependency can occur with ...

Weakness of the limbs and respiratory muscles has increasingly been found to be a frequent event that complicates the medical history of patients in Intensive Care. The problem normally affects more serious cases and presents as muscular weakness leading to flaccid paralysis and difficulty in weaning patients off mechanical ventilation.

Intrathoracic Phrenic Nerve Neurofibroma
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2011The usual location of intrathoracic neurogenic tumors is the posterior mediastinum. Those in a mediastinal anterior or middle location arise from the intrathoracic phrenic nerve, which is extremely rare and causes a problem for etiologic diagnosis. We report what is, to our knowledge, the second case of a mediastinal neurofibroma originating from the ...

Phrenic nerve conduction studies
Muscle & Nerve, 1992AbstractTo refine in the technique of phrenic nerve conduction, we first studied electrode positioning and sources of chest wall artifact. Diaphragmatic compound motor action potentials (DCMAPs) were mapped at close intervals over 4 hemithoraces of two subjects, finding optimum recording sites which were then used to quantitate artifacts due to EKG ...
