Abstract：
:Widespread use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has allowed an increasing number of infants with total agenesis of the diaphragm to survive. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is the most widely used material for reconstruction. However, recurrent hernia is a growing problem; PTFE also does not grow with the patient. This study evaluated different materials for diaphragmatic reconstruction in growing animals. Sprague-Dawley rats with a mean weight of 93 g were anesthetized and underwent laparotomy. The control group had an incision into the diaphragm with primary repair. The other three groups underwent complete removal of the left hemidiaphragm and were randomly assigned to one of three reconstruction methods: oxidized cellulose, polyglactin mesh, or a 1-mm PTFE patch. All patch materials were sewn around the ribs circumferentially and into the membranous portion of the central diaphragm medially with 4-0 silk. Thirty-seven animals survived operation, were followed with weekly chest radiographs, and were killed when they reached 400 g. The radiographs were reviewed in a blinded fashion by two observers as were the necropsies, and rib deformity was graded on a scale of 0 to 3. Histological examination of several animals from each group was performed. There was significantly greater rib deformity (2.0 v 0.2, P < .01) in the PTFE group versus controls with 5 of 10 animals also having a smaller thorax. The PTFE pulled away from the chest wall in the animals leaving a fibrous remnant anteriorly. The polyglactin group had significantly more animals with eventration (P < .03, 7/10) compared with all others.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
