Surgical Repair of Right Medial Lung Lobe Torsion after Chronic Diaphragmatic Herniorrhaphy in a Dog

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

A dog was diagnosed with chronic diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). Two-weeks after herniorrhaphy, the dog was re-admitted with an acute onset of weakness and lethargy. Thoracic radiographs demonstrated a soft tissue mass in the middle right thoracic region. Ultrasonographic examination revealed consolidation of the right middle lung lobe. Computed tomography (CT) scanning confirmed the rotation of the right middle lung lobe. A 4-5 right-sided thoracotomy was performed, with lobectomy of the torsed lung. The patient recovered without any complications over a 6-month follow-up period. To the authors' knowledge, this study is a report of a rare case to describe lung lobe torsion two-weeks after diaphragmatic herniorrhaphy in a dog.
