6. Incidence: 1 in 3000 to 5000 live births (live births vs. stillbirths)
40% of cases with associated anomalies
The presence of such associated anomalies worsens the prognosis very significantly,
with a mortality rate of almost 80%
Majority: isolated CDH with pulmonary hypoplasia and PPHN
• May not be secondary to a defect of muscularization but rather to a malformation of
the a-muscular mesenchymal components
• May have developed from a small congenital defect enlarging over time secondarily
to an increase in intra-abdominal pressure caused by physical exertion, childbirth,
obesity, and so on
• A traumatic cause is difficult to rule out
Different in pediatric and adult (more commonly on right side)

Recent hypothesis:
• The initial insult occurs during the stages of
organogenesis resulting in bilateral hypoplasia,
followed by compression of the ipsilateral lung
secondary to the herniation of the abdominal
viscera at later stages
• Explains the variability of lung hypoplasia on the
contralateral side, decreased branching of the
bronchioles and pulmonary vessels leading to
acinar hypoplasia, decreased terminal
bronchioles with thickening of alveolar septa
• The lung is relatively immature, hypoplasia of
pulmonary vasculature leads to PPHN

Prenatal diagnosis using ultrasound, MRI
Prognostic factor: the ratio of contralateral lung
area to head circumference (LHR)
At birth respiratory difficulties
immediately intubated
Mask bagging is avoided because it increases
the distention of the herniated stomach and
intestine and therefore compromises the
ventilation even more
Stabilization of the patient and delayed surgical
repair is now the standard of care for newborns
with CDH
Gentle ventilation with permissive hypercapnia:
preductal SatO2 >85%, tolerating PaCO2 up to
60mmHg
Inhaled NO, HFOV, ECMO

17. Should be performed electively, after clinical stabilization
(similar for CDH EURO Consortium Group and Canadian
Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Collaborative)
The herniated viscera are returned to the abdomen, and, in
the rare case in which a hernia sac is present, it is excised
Any small diaphragmatic defect is closed with interrupted
nonabsorbable sutures
For larger diaphragmatic defects, or in complete absence of the
hemidiaphragm, a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane
is used and can sometimes be sutured to the ribs anteriorly and
posteriorly
Optimal surgical technique under debate: minimal vs open,
thoracotomy or laparotomy

Diaphragmatic continuity is
present but the incomplete and
abnormal development of the
muscle leads to an inability to
contract normally
Incomplete migration of myoblasts
from cervical somites into
pleuroperitoneal membrane
CXR: the presence of a
hemidiaphragm at least two
intercostal spaces higher than on
the other side (may be difficult to
observe in ventilated patient)
20. Asymptomatic patients do not require treatment
• The noncontracting part of the diaphragm is folded in a mediolateral direction and
sutured with nonabsorbable sutures
• Care must be taken to avoid injury to the phrenic nerve, or to intra-abdominal
organs if the surgical approach is transthoracic
The aim of surgery is to plicate the hemidiaphragm in a flattened position two
intercostal spaces lower than its initial position
Abdominal approach: bilateral eventration, volvulus, previous cardiac surgery
Minimal invasive: thoracoscopy or laparoscopy

Usually found incidentally on routine chest
radiographs in asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic
patients
Most cases of CDH diagnosed in adults are addressed
surgically
• Potential for catastrophic complications secondary to
organ volvulus and perforation
Abdominal approach preferred complete
inspection of the abdominal organs that may have
been injured by incarceration, strangulation, or the
reduction procedure itself
The defect can sometimes be closed primarily without
tension, a polypropylene or polytetrafluoroethylene mesh
is typically used
• Severe dyspnea interfering with normal activities, orthopnea
• Gastrointestinal symptoms clearly related to the high position
of the diaphragm
Treated conservatively unless:
• Simple plication without opening the diaphragm
• Excision of a central ellipse of aponeurotic diaphragm
followed by double breasted suture
Operation: posterolateral approach
• Immobilize the diaphragm in a lower flat position
• Reduce its compression of the ipsilateral lung and
mediastinum
• Possibly to recover function if there is adequate residual
muscle under the costal arch
Objectives:
26. • Congenital diaphragmatic malformations include congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and
diaphragmatic eventration (DE). The eventrated diaphragm, which is an abnormally thin diaphragm,
results from an abnormal development of its muscular component. It must be differentiated from
diaphragmatic paralysis.
• The standard of care for newborns presenting with CDH is delayed surgical repair after that the patient
has been stabilized. During that time, nitric oxide, high-frequency jet ventilation, and extracorporeal
membrane oxygenation may be used.
• Surgery is rarely needed for DE in the pediatric population. It may be indicated in symptomatic patients or
when a large eventration will potentially interfere with postnatal lung growth.
• An elevated diaphragm in the adult population is attributed to congenital diaphragmatic malformation
only after other etiologies have been excluded. Indications for surgery in adults are rare and are almost
limited to previously unrecognized diaphragmatic hernias. Clinicians must be careful before
recommending diaphragmatic plication for respiratory or digestive symptoms thought to be related to
eventration..
