title: [A surgical case of eventration of diaphragma in ten-year-old boy: a newer approach of operative correction of eventration].
abstract: A ten-year-old boy was admitted to our hospital for surgical treatment of eventration of diaphragma. He had operative correction of eventration with intrathoracic approach and recovered good health. We present a newer method of operative correction of eventration, which can be beneficial in prevention of "re-eventration", especially, on younger patients.
