Abstract
During 2011 - 2014 yrs in Surgical Clinic of The First City Clinic (Poltava) a relaparotomy was performed in 127 patients. There was established, that relaparotomy constitutes the only one procedure for such life threatening states, as intraabdominal bleeding, ileus in a decompensation stage, eventration, progressing peritonitis, abdominal compartment syndrome stages III - IV. The rate of relaparotomy application after performance of urgent operative interventions is bigger than after planned operations (ratio 4:1). Individual estimation of a state and choice of optimal surgical tactics during primary and secondary operative interventions are needed to improve the results of treatment.

Abstract
A stillborn full term foal was presented at necropsy. The dilated duodenum and the dorsal and ventral left colon and cecum extended into the thoracic cavity and were encased by a thin transparent membrane originating from the diaphragm. The congenital condition was diagnosed as a developmental anomaly with diaphragmatic eventration. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of diaphragmatic eventration in a Thoroughbred stillborn foal.

Abstract
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and severe congenital diaphragmatic eventration (SDE) still have high mortality. Our aims were to identify clinical prognostic factors for CDH and SDE, and to determine whether the size or area of the proximal bilateral pulmonary arteries (PA) correlate with the clinical outcome. We retrospectively analyzed medical charts of 26 patients--20 with CDH and 6 with SDE, but no obvious other associated anomalies--admitted over a 12-year period. We compared prenatal history, clinical manifestations, blood gas, and echocardiography before surgery in the survivors and the non-survivors. Ten patients (8 CDH, 2 SDE) died 2 to 16 days after birth, including 2 patients without surgery due to progressive hypoxemia. The survivors had significantly higher 1- and 5-min Apgar scores, higher the worst preductal arterial blood gas pH levels, lower oxygen indices, and lower PaCO2 (P < 0.05). The McGoon index of PA size measured by echocardiography was higher in survivors, but not statistically significant. Nakada PA index results, however, were statistically significant (93.07 +/- 32.02 vs. 121.07 +/- 27.08, P < 0.05) In conclusion, Apgar scores, preductal PaCO2, oxygen index, and pH level can predict prognosis in infants with CDH and SDE. The Nakada PA index, however, might be a useful prognostic marker for patients with CDH and SDE.

Abstract
Eventration of the diaphragm is generally defined as an abnormal elevation of all or a portion of an attenuated but otherwise intact diaphragmatic leaf. Previous studies have indicated that eventration is a relatively rare condition, which can be symptomatic and requires surgery. We aimed to evaluate our patients with diaphragmatic eventration, and to discuss their characteristics in the light of the relevant literature. We retrospectively analyzed age, sex, incidence, location of the eventration, symptoms, associated anomalies, surgical technique, complications and survival in our patients. Between 1974 and 1999, 33 patients were treated in the Pediatric Surgery Departments of Ege University, SSK Children's Hospital and Behçet Uz Children's Hospital, 18 of them boys and 15 girls. The ages of our patients ranged from three days to 12 years. All of the patients had at least one of the respiratory symptoms such as cough, respiratory distress and fever; 3 newborns were admitted with severe respiratory distress while children belonging to higher age groups had symptoms of acute or recurrent pulmonary infections and failure to thrive. The eventration was right-sided in 22, 11 eventrations were left-sided. Diagnosis was performed with the help of a number of radiological studies such as fluoroscopic investigation, contrast study of the upper gastrointestinal system, direct X-ray graphies of the thorax, CT scan and ultrasonography, as necessary. Surgery was performed via thoracotomy in 20 patients and the 12 other patients underwent laparotomy for plication. One patient underwent thoracoabdominal plication. Two patients died because of cardio-respiratory complications in the early postoperative period and the rest of them survived to annual follow-ups. In conclusion, diaphragmatic eventration is an important condition which can eventually be mortal. Early diagnosis is necessary and plication is the treatment of choice.

Abstract
Two sporadic cases of eventration of the diaphragm are reported; one had bilateral colobomatous microphthalmia and the other had anophthalmia. Absence of polydactyly and presence of eventration rather than diaphragmatic hernia helped to exclude Fryns syndrome. These cases together with published cases with overlapping features support the thesis that this combination of defects is nonrandom and of heterogeneous cause. Some cases are due to a pleiotropic gene defect. In other cases, a polytypic developmental field involving an unknown developmental cascade common to the eye and diaphragm may provide a basis for the combination.

Abstract
Diaphragmatic defects such as eventration and hernia are known to be associated with a high-sited, sometimes intrathoracic spleen. We report here a unique case of an 8-year-old boy found to have a left congenital diaphragmatic eventration and a suprapubic wandering spleen after presenting with symptoms of an "acute abdomen" due to torsion of the splenic pedicle. To our knowledge only one other case of a similar paradoxical association of these anomalies has been reported before; interestingly, in this patient splenic infarction had also resulted secondary to splenic torsion. We recommend careful evaluation of the location and vascular status of the spleen in all patients with congenital diaphragmatic defects due to the common occurrence of splenic vascular insult.

Abstract
The ratio of lumen/wall thickness of pulmonary arterioles was measured in patients who died post-operatively due to a congenital diaphragmatic defect. This was compared to normal arterioles in healthy newborn lungs. The wall musculature of pulmonary arterioles was 2.8 times thicker than in normal arterioles of newborn lungs. The main cause of this enormous wall thickness is a genuine growth of substance, i.e. myohyperplasia. Myohypertrophia can be an additional reason.

Abstract
The study reviews 18 infants and children with eventration of the diaphragm who were treated over a period of eight years. The affected diaphragm and pulmonary tissue were examined by light and electron microscopy. The 18 patients, ranging in age from 10 days to 6 years, were divided according to Thomas' classification into a group with the congenital (10 patients) and a group with the acquired type (8 patients). Fifteen of these patients underwent surgery with diaphragmatic plication. On microscopic examination, biopsies of the lung showed atelectasis and pneumonia. These pathological changes became increasingly diffuse and severe with age. The diaphragm in patients with the congenital type of eventration was occupied by diffuse fibroelastic tissue. In patients with the acquired type, the cross-striated muscles of the diaphragm showed degenerative changes such as fragmentation, and interstitial fibrosis of the diaphragm became prominent with age. The results of this clinical study suggest that, in order to reduce the pathological changes in the lung, early surgical plication should be performed even in patients with the acquired type, if respiratory and digestive symptoms are noted.

Abstract
We describe two infants dying neonatally of respiratory failure despite all attempts at resuscitation. The most striking finding at autopsy was eventration and reduced muscle content of the diaphragm. Microscopic examination of the skeletal muscles, in combination with retrospective evaluation of the family history, disclosed severe X-linked centronuclear myopathy in the first patient and congenital myotonic dystrophy in the second. These disorders are probably more frequent than reported before. Their identification is important, not only for genetic counseling of the involved families but also for providing the neonatologist a sufficient explanation for the failure of resuscitation.

Abstract
Bilateral congenital eventration of the diaphragms is a relatively rare occurrence, associated with an almost uniform mortality. We recently have had experience with three patients who underwent successful treatment of this anomaly. Each patient presented as a newborn with severe respiratory insufficiency. One had had a sibling who died shortly after birth with a congenital diaphragmatic hernia. One infant had associated respiratory distress syndrome. PA and lateral chest roentgenograms demonstrated the anomaly in each patient. In two, the use of ultrasound clearly demonstrated the presence of attenuated diaphragms and paradoxical motion. Each infant underwent transabdominal bilateral diaphragmatic plication, reinforced with transversus abdominis muscle, within the first 2 weeks of life. Two infants showed prompt improvement in arterial blood gases and were extubated following the operation. The infant with respiratory distress syndrome required a tracheostomy for continued mechanical ventilation. This infant developed a recurrent eventration of the left diaphragm 6 months after the initial operation and has undergone a secondary plication with clinical improvement. Unlike unilateral eventration, bilateral eventration of the diaphragms is associated with persistent and significant respiratory symptoms. Surgical plication should be performed urgently in all of these patients, before chronic pulmonary changes occur.
