VATS plication of diaphragmatic eventration.

S R Knight1, C P Clarke.   

Abstract

Diaphragmatic eventration in the adult may be associated with dyspnoea. Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) techniques have been applied to the plication of diaphragmatic eventration in three adult patients. Symptoms and spirometry improved in all patients. Ventilation and perfusion of the affected lung was also improved.
