Type of treatments involved in Diaphragm surgery

John Piyawan*

Plication of the diaphragm is a surgical procedure that has been performed since the 1920s for the treatment of diaphragmatic palsy. Diaphragmatic palsy is a serious problem for individualities suffering from the respiratory abnormalities, reduced energy situations and sleep disturbances that are generally associated with the complaint. The incapability of the lung to expand completely in cases with diaphragmatic palsy also makes these individualities more susceptible to pleural effusions, pneumonia and atelectasis.
