Long-Term Follow-Up after Phrenic Nerve Reconstruction for Diaphragmatic Paralysis: A Review of 180 PatientsJ Reconstr Microsurg 2017; 33(01): 063-069
DOI: 10.1055/s-0036-1588018

It has been brought to the Publisher's attention that figures were mislabeled in the above-mentioned article published in the Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery, Volume 33, Number 1, pages 63–69 (DOI: 10.1055/s-0036-1588018). Also there were errors in two sentences on pages 64 and 66.

The correct figures and the corrected sentences appear as follows:

Zoom
Fig. 2 SF-36 physical functioning survey scores. A 26% improvement was noted following phrenic nerve reconstruction. SF-36, 36-Item Short Form Health Survey.
Zoom
Fig. 3 Average pre- and postoperative phrenic nerve conduction latencies. Reference value of 7 ± 1.4 ms is shown graphically.

Although the long-term impact of diaphragmatic paralysis on the respiratory system has not been rigorously evaluated, it has been suggested that a chronic reduction in lower lung aeration not only compromises function, but also increases susceptibility to respiratory infections and the onset of obstructive pulmonary disorders.


On page 66: para 5, line 3

In 50% of patients, there was a reversal of paradoxical movement and an improved static position of the diaphragm following treatment, whereas optimal fluoroscopic diaphragmatic activity (symmetrical static and dynamic positioning of the treated side when compared with the contralateral unaffected hemidiaphragm) was observed in 36% of patients.
