Redo lung herniation repair
Lung herniation occurs when the parenchyma of the lung crosses the plane of the chest wall. This can occur due to blunt or penetrating trauma, previous thoracic surgery leading to weakening of the chest wall, congenital chest wall defects, or can occur spontaneously secondary to pulmonary disease creating increased intrathoracic pressure. In this case report, we present a redo lung herniation repair using FiberTape instead of mesh or plating.
