Sonographic localisation of lymph nodes suspicious of metastatic breast cancer to surgical axillary levels

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 119-138, March 2025.
Sonographic imaging is used to identify the presence, number and location of malignant lymph nodes. Axillary lymph nodes suspicious of harbouring breast cancer metastasis can be localised to three surgical axillary levels. This paper will unpack the axillary anatomy, muscular sonographic landmarks, surgical axillary lymph node levels and the ...

Surgical Treatment of Phrenic Nerve Injury

, 2019
Unilateral phrenic nerve injury often results in symptomatic hemidiaphragm paralysis. Although diaphragmatic plication is a treatment option, phrenic nerve repair may also be considered in an attempt to restore function of the paralyzed hemidiaphragm and

Predictors for Successful Non‐Invasive Ventilation in Patients With Neuralgic Amyotrophy and Phrenic Nerve Involvement

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Phrenic nerve involvement in neuralgic amyotrophy (NA) may cause diaphragm paresis and respiratory impairment, for which chronic non‐invasive ventilation (NIV) may be beneficial. Data on treatment success and predictors are lacking.

Comparative the impact intraoperative phrenic nerve sacrifice on prognosis patients with thymoma

BMC Pulmonary Medicine
Objectives Complete removal of the tumor and surrounding tissue is the most important prognostic factor such as survival after surgery. When the tumor invades the phrenic nerve, the impact of intraoperative phrenic nerve sacrifice on the short- and long ...

Reduced Phrenic CMAP Amplitudes in Obesity Despite Preserved Diaphragm Ultrasound Measures

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Phrenic nerve conduction studies (NCS) are regularly used in the evaluation of neuromuscular respiratory dysfunction; however, the impact of body mass index (BMI) on phrenic compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitudes remains poorly characterized. We evaluated the relationship between BMI and phrenic CMAP amplitudes in

Transient right hemidiaphragmatic paralysis following subclavian venous catheterization: possible implications of anatomical variation of the phrenic nerve -a case report- [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2013
Phrenic nerve paralysis is an unusual complication associated with central venous catheterization. Various mechanisms have been proposed. We present a case of transient right hemidiaphragmatic paralysis after subclavian venous catheterization.

Role of Fetoscopic Airway Evaluation Immediately Preceding EXIT Procedure in Fetuses With Suspected Airway Obstruction

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study describes the role of pre‐EXIT (Ex Utero Intrapartum Treatment) fetoscopic airway evaluation in fetuses with suspected airway obstruction. Methods Single center, retrospective, observational study including fetuses with suspected airway obstruction undergoing fetoscopic airway evaluation prior to EXIT between 2013 and 2025.
