Title: [The surgery of diaphragmatic hydatidosis and their complications]. Author: Issoufou I, Harmouchi H, Rabiou S, Belliraj L, Ammor FZ, Diarra AS, Lakranbi M, Sani R, Ouadnouni Y, Smahi M. Journal: Rev Pneumol Clin; 2017 Oct; 73(5):253-257. PubMed ID: 29054716. Abstract: Primary or secondary diaphragmatic echinococcosis is rare, accounting for 1% of the thoracic locations. They may be operative discovery or by their complication, hence a variable symptomatology making this localization a particular entity. The thoracic and abdominal CT allows a complete assessment.

Through a series of 4 operated patients, we focus on the clinical and therapeutic features of this pathology and its complications.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
