2020, Journal of Pediatric SurgeryCitation Excerpt :The majority of those cases (12 of 13) were performed after 30 days of life. Based on this cohort, these authors advocated observation for the first 30 days of life to ensure the baby would not spontaneously recover before an operative intervention [15]. In contrast, Stramrood et al. performed 80% of surgical plications before 30 days of life and found earlier plication yielded better respiratory outcomes than plication after 30 days [16].

2015, Journal of Pediatric SurgeryCitation Excerpt :The typical clinical manifestations may lead to the diagnosis of CDE, which is often confirmed by chest x-ray and fluoroscopy. The symptomatic CDE in children usually requires surgical treatment [5,15–18]. Indications for surgery include: (1) rapid breathing without improvement under a conservative treatment; (2) two or more recurrent ipsilateral pneumonias; (3) one life-threatening pneumonia; (4) inability to wean from mechanical ventilation; (5) respiratory distress related to paradoxical motion of the diaphragm.
