Reconstruction of the phrenic nerve with tumor lesion. The first case in Russia
https://doi.org/10.52581/1814-1471/85/05
Abstract
Diaphragmatic palsy due to intraoperative injury of the phrenic nerve leads to the severe ventilation disorders, a decrease in the quality of life, leveling the effect of the main operation. According to foreign authors, the reconstruction of the phrenic nerve is an optimal alternative to the diaphragm plication in acute injuries of the phrenic nerve. This case describes the first successful experience in our country of reconstruction of the phrenic nerve with intercostal nerve graft in a patient with locally advanced stage IIIB thymoma.
