OBJECTIVE: Diaphragm paralysis is a well-known complication following surgery for CHDs, which increases morbidity, mortality, and length of hospital stay as well as costs. Herein, we present our experience with diaphragm plication following paralysis of the phrenic nerve encountered after paediatric cardiac surgery.
METHODS: This study retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 23 diaphragm plications in 20 patients who underwent paediatric cardiac surgery between January 2012 and January 2022. The patients were carefully selected based on aetiology and a combination of clinical manifestation and chest imaging characteristics including chest X-ray, ultrasonography, and fluoroscopy.
RESULTS: Twenty-three successful plications were performed in 20 patients (15 males and 5 females) out of a total of 1938 operations performed in our centre. Mean age and body weight were 18.2 ± 17.1 months and 8.3 ± 3.7 kg, respectively. The period between the cardiac surgery and diaphragmatic plication was 18.7 ± 15.1 days. The highest incidence of diaphragm paralysis was encountered in systemic to pulmonary artery shunt patients with 7 out of 152 patients (4.6%). Any mortality was not encountered during a mean follow-up period of 4.3 ± 2.6 years.
CONCLUSIONS: Early results of plication of the diaphragm following phrenic nerve palsy in symptomatic patients who underwent paediatric cardiac surgery are encouraging. Evaluation of the diaphragmatic function should be a routine part of post-operative echocardiography. Diaphragm paralysis may be a consequence of dissection, contusion, stretching, and thermal injury both in terms of hypothermia and hyperthermia.
