[...]. Diaphragmatic Eventration vs. Paralysis. CTICases. Published January 5, 2023. https://cticases.com/c/m55g5
Imaging findings
Focal elevation of the diaphragm. Fluoroscopy shows preservation of movement in the muscularized anterior portion.
Key takeaways
Use lateral fluoroscopy to distinguish eventration from paralysis; the presence of an intact posterior muscle band typically allows for normal return to height medially near the IVC.
