الوصف: | Diaphragmatic paralysis is an uncommon condition characterized by significant elevation of a hemidiaphragm, and can cause dyspnea. The goal of diaphragm plication is to improve dyspnea by correcting the dysfunctional movement of a diaphragm during inspiration. Minimally invasive thoracoscopic diaphragm plication has been widely used and has been reported to lead to significant improvements in dyspnea and postoperative pulmonary function. Advantages of thoracoscopic plication compared to open thoracotomy are less postoperative pain and shorter hospitalization, yet technical difficulties due to limited workspace afforded by the ribcage and the elevated hemidiaphragm have been a major drawback in using the thoracoscopic approach for this disorder. We describe our experience with robotic thoracoscopic plication for the treatment of diaphragmatic paralysis. This is, to our knowledge, the first report of this kind. |
