Abstract
Diaphragm eventration is the permanent elevation of a hemidiaphragm and can be due to congenital or acquired causes. It is a rather uncommon condition in adults and causes a spectrum of symptoms, ranging from asymptomatic incidental findings on imaging to life-threatening respiratory distress. Asymptomatic patients do not require any treatment, but plication is the conventional, well-known method for treating symptomatic patients. Management varies depending on the symptoms. In this article, we discuss two rare cases of diaphragmatic eventration that were treated with minimal access surgery.
