31 children with eventration of the diaphragm were observed at the surgical department of the University Children's Hospital in Zürich from 1960 to 1975. 27 of the 31 children were less than one year old. In 14 of the cases the eventration was caused by a congenital hypoplasia of the diaphragm, in 12 by a traumatic paralysis of the phrenic nerve and in 3 cases it occurred postoperatively. 2 children had acquired the eventration later on in childhood. 18 of the 31 children were operated upon, 13 were treated conservatively. All except one survived and were examined again 3 to 15 years later. The various pathological anatomical forms, the clinical picture, signs and symptoms and the indication for conservative or operative treatment are discussed and illustrated by typical cases of the present series.
1960年至1975年间，苏黎世大学儿童医院外科对31例膈膨出患儿进行了观察。31例患儿中有27例年龄小于1岁。其中14例膈膨出由先天性膈肌发育不全引起，12例由膈神经外伤性麻痹引起，3例发生于术后。2例患儿在儿童期后期出现膈膨出。31例患儿中有18例接受了手术治疗，13例接受了保守治疗。除1例患儿外，其他患儿均存活，并在3至15年后再次接受检查。本文通过本系列典型病例讨论并说明了各种病理解剖形式、临床表现、体征和症状以及保守或手术治疗的指征。
