Overview
If left untreated, patients with unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis may recover fully or partially. Common complication of diaaphragmatic paralysis includes severe pulmonary dysfunction in bilateral diaphragmatic paralysis. Prognosis is generally excellent in unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis and bilateral diaphragmatic paralysis is a medical emergency.
Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis
Natural History
- If left untreated, patients with unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis may recover fully or partially. Most of the bilateral diaphragmatic paralysis are symptomatic and may develop ventilatory failure. [1]
Complications
- Common complication of diaphragmatic paralysis include:
- Severe pulmonary dysfunction in bilateral diaphragmatic paralysis.
Prognosis
- Prognosis is generally excellent in unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis.[2]
- Bilateral diaphragmatic paralysis is a medical emergency.
