“…In 1946, Maurer and Blades defined a pulmonary hernia as a protrusion of the pulmonary tissue enveloped by the pleura through a defect of the thoracic wall [8, 9]. This is a rare pathology, particularly for children: a total of 300 cases have been noted between 1499 (date of the first description by Roland) and 2004 [3, 9]. However, the etiologies of these hernias are diverse, even for children.…”

“…Morel–Lavallée described their classification in 1845 [1, 8, 9]. On the one hand, it distinguishes congenital pulmonary hernia (20%) from acquired (80%), on the other hand, it distinguishes them according to topography: cervical (17–35%), intercostal (65–83%), or diaphragmatic [3, 9]. Acquired hernias are traumatic, but some spontaneous cases have been reported among patients with some predisposing factors such as a chronic cough, chronic and obstructive bronchopulmonary diseases, neoplasia, chronic use of steroids, and Ehlers–Danlos syndrome [3, 6, 10, 11].…”

“…A lung hernia is rare, particularly among children [1, 2]. In 80% of cases, lung hernia is acquired and in 20% of cases, it is congenital [3, 4]. The congenital forms are typically linked to polymalformation of the ribcage [1, 5]; they are exceptionally isolated.…”

Background Intercostal lung herniation is a rare condition that may be congenital (20%) or acquired (80%). The isolated congenital form is exceptional, with one case reported in the literature. Case presentation We report a case of a 10-year-old French boy of Algeria origin, born with intermittent swelling of his right hemithorax. The swelling and pain gradually increased with age. A clinical examination revealed a localized swelling of his right hemithorax at the level of the midclavicular line and the fifth intercostal space. The swelling increased in size during respiratory movements and enlarged with Valsalva maneuvers. The intercostal lung hernia was treated by thoracoscopy. Conclusions This is the second case of isolated congenital intercostal pulmonary hernia reported in the French and English literature. It is the first to be treated by thoracoscopy. Based on this case we performed a review of the diagnosis and therapeutic aspect of pulmonary hernias.

“…Several techniques have been described; muscular defects in pediatric patients are most commonly repaired with absorbable sutures is to allow for normal growth. Conservative treatment may be considered depending on hernia size and risk of entrapment of the lung parenchyma [6,7]. To our knowledge, this was the first case report of post-traumatic intercostal lung herniation in children managed with conservative treatment and with a favorable outcome.…”

a b s t r a c tIntercostal lung herniation by non-penetrating chest wall trauma is rare in the pediatric population, and only a few cases are reported in the literature. We described a case of a post-traumatic lung herniation in a 9-year-old child, after closed chest trauma by a bicycle handlebar. The diagnosis was made with chest X-ray and mediastinal ultrasound imaging. Surgery is frequently needed to treat a lung hernia. In our case, given the small size of the lung hernia, conservative medical treatment was sufficient and effective.

“…Although uncommon overall (12), it is most frequently diagnosed in children and is three times more likely to occur on the right side (13). Although surgical therapy is usually recommended (14), observation and expectant management are frequently prescribed (15) because many tend to disappear with time. Transdiaphragmatic herniation is the rarest type, with fewer than 10 reported cases (10).…”

The present article reports on the successful management of a large flail chest with traumatic pulmonary herniation in a patient who could not be weaned from mechanical ventilation following a course of conservative management. Surgical intervention involved open reduction and internal fixation with tubular plates to stabilize the flail segment, followed by a pectoralis major myocutaneous flap to repair the chest wall defect. Following surgical intervention, the patient was able to be weaned from mechanical ventilation and showed remarkable improvement in pulmonary function parameters. To the authors’ knowledge, the present report is the first to describe the use of open reduction and internal fixation of the chest wall and flap reconstruction to treat lung herniation with a flail chest segment.
