Abstract

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia occurs when the abdominal contents protrude into the thoracic cavity due to an alteration in the embryological development of the diaphragm. We report the case of a neonate congenital diaphragmatic hernia diagnosed in our service. The hernia produced signs of respiratory distress while remaining in joint accommodation, stabilized with oxygen support for surgical management in a third level hospital, where it is submitted to surgical repair with good evolution and without dependence on oxygen.
