1 Surgical Treatment of Diaphragmatic Eventration Using Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery: A Prospective Study  Jérôme Mouroux, MD, Nicolas Venissac, MD, Francesco Leo, MD, Marco Alifano, MD, Françoise Guillot, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 79, Issue 1, Pages (January 2005) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2005 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Left diaphragmatic eventration on inspiratory roentgenogram film. The two horizontal lines allow calculation of elevation, which is estimated by the length of the double-headed arrow.

3 Fig 2 Thoracic computed tomography scan of the same patient indicated in Fig 1. Diaphragmatic eventration was evident for 20 years. This 63-year-old patient received a diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis 43 years previously. Calcified para-aortic nodes suggest an involvement of the phrenic nerve at this level.

4 Fig 3 Preoperative and postoperative forced expiratory volume at 1 second (FEV1) values in 10 patients. Two patients were operated on less than 1 year before the completion of the study. *Identifies a patient treated with adjuvant chest radiotherapy for a thymoma diagnosed 3 years after surgical treatment of eventration.
