Pulmonary Function Outcomes in Children Undergoing Diaphragmatic Plication After Phrenic Nerve Palsy Secondary to Cardiac Surgery: A 10‐Year Case Series

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2025.
This 10‐year retrospective case series evaluated mid‐term pulmonary outcomes in children who underwent diaphragmatic plication for phrenic nerve palsy following cardiac surgery. The results reveal a restrictive ventilatory pattern and consistent post‐exercise oxygen desaturation, despite preserved functional walking capacity.

Perioperative Outcomes and Long-term Survival in Clinically Early-stage Thymic 
Malignancies: Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Thymectomy versus Open Approaches

IgG4‐Related Sclerosing Mediastinitis Mimicking Thymoma: A Case Report

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2025.
This case highlights the diagnostic challenge of mediastinal IgG4‐RD and the importance of considering it in the differential diagnosis of thymic tumours, even when serum IgG4 is normal. ABSTRACT IgG4‐related disease (IgG4‐RD) rarely presents as an anterior mediastinal mass and may radiologically resemble thymic neoplasms.
