Pathway from anterior suprascapular nerve block to the phrenic nerve: a cadaveric dye study [PDF]
Background Anterior suprascapular nerve block is widely used for postoperative shoulder pain management. Although cadaveric studies show the spread and smudging of the phrenic nerve, our cadaveric injection investigation was conducted to investigate the ...

ABSTRACT The standard for assessing and recording the extent of the tumour, a necessity for most malignancies, is the Tumour Node Metastases (TNM) classification. The Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) TNM committee has defined this since the early 1950s.

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
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

ABSTRACT Thymoma is the most common tumor of the anterior mediastinum. Approximately 20%–30% of patients with a thymoma develop myasthenia gravis (MG), and an additional one third may possess positive acetylcholine receptor (AChR) antibodies without MG.

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

The combination of cardiac resynchronization therapy and pulmonary artery banding was associated with substantial improvement in advanced heart failure infants with left ventricular dilated cardiomyopathy and left bundle branch block. Most patients exhibited marked improvement in clinical status and ventricular function, along with a reduction in QRS ...

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