Abstract

A case of full-term neonate with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a potentially severe anomaly wherein a diaphragmatic defect allows intrathoracic herniation of intra-abdominal contents. CDH is usually accompanied by pulmonary hypertension which worsens the prognosis. In our case, the newborn doesn't develop pulmonary hypertension and timely surgical intervention and accurate post-operative care gave the expected outcomes.
