Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia and Associated Anomalies

Abstract

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is associated with multiple reported associated anomalies. Knowledge of these anomalies and their management if required should be part of overall treatment. Many of these are fatal and have known association with chromosomal abnormalities and can result in still born babies. Another aspect of the knowledge of these anomalies is in predicting the recurrence in the subsequent pregnancies.
