Introdução: A hérnia diafragmática congênita é a falha do fechamento embrionário do músculo diafragmático, resultando em um defeito de continuidade. Esta patologia pode ocorrer pela passagem de estruturas do abdome através de um defeito no diafragma, ou haver herniação parcial do estômago através do hiato esofágico, paralisia frênica com deslocamento do conteúdo abdominal para cima, mas sem herniação, e, eventração do diafragma. Casuística: Foi relatado um caso de hérnia diafragmática congênita, hérnia de Bochdalek, em um recém – nascido do sexo feminino, que nos ultra-sonografias da gestante apresentavam sem alterações. O diagnóstico da patologia foi feito apenas após a realização de raios-X de tórax e abdome para confirmar a posição do cateterismo umbilical venoso. Discussão/Conclusão: A apresentação clínica da hérnia de diafragmática congênita inclui desconforto respiratório moderado a grave com repercussão sistêmica. O diagnóstico, em cerca de 80% dos casos, é feito por ultrassom pré-natal. O tratamento proposto foi intubação endotraqueal com ventilação mecânica e programação para correção cirúrgica da hérnia. Após correção cirúrgica da patologia, a paciente permaneceu na unidade de terapia intensiva neonatal por 21 dias para acompanhamento de pós – operatório e intercorrências na evolução. Palavras-chave: hérnia diafragmática congênita, recém-nascido, hérnia de BochdalekABSTRACTIntroduction: Congenital diaphragmatic hernia is the failure of embryonic closure of the diaphragm, resulting in a lack of continuity. This condition can occur by passing structures of the abdomen through a defect in the diaphragm, or be part herniation of the stomach through the esophageal hiatus, phrenic paralysis with displacement of abdominal contents up but no herniation, and eventration of the diaphragm. Case Report: We report a case congenital diaphragmatic hernia, such as Bochdalek hernia, in a new - born female that in ultrasounds of pregnant women showed without change. The diagnosis of the disease was made only after conducting X-ray of the chest and abdomen to confirm the position of umbilical venous catheterization. Discussion/Conclusion: Clinical presentation of congenital diaphragmatic hernia includes moderate to severe respiratory distress with systemic repercussions. The diagnosis in about 80% of the cases is done by ultrasound prenatally. The proposed treatment was endotracheal intubation with mechanical ventilation and programming for surgical correction of the hernia. After surgical pathology, the patient remained in neonatal intensive care unit for 21 days to monitor post - operative complications and evolution.  Keywords: congenital diaphragmatic hernia, newborn, Bochdalek hernia

Bochdalek hernia is the most common congenital diaphragmatic hernia that typically presents in childhood. However, right sided diaphragmatic hernia is relatively rare. We review the case of 21 years old female with incidentally detected congenital diaphragmatic hernia on the right side. There are fewer than 20 cases of right sided diaphragmatic hernia reported in adults in literature.

We present a case of congenital diaphragmatic hernia that was successfully treated with spi-ral tacks using thoracoscopy. A newborn female was diagnosed with a diaphragmatic hernia at 20 weeks of gestation. The defect was surgically repaired by thoracoscopy and primary closure. On postoperative day 25, she developed respiratory distress. Chest x-ray showed a recurrence and was taken to the OR for surgical repair with spiral tacks.

Background: Very little is known about the breastfeeding experience of mothers of infants born with congenital anomalies and cared for in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Often, studies related to breastfeeding and lactation in the NICU setting are focused on the mothers of late preterm, preterm, low-birth-weight, and very-low-birth-weight infants. Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is an anatomic malformation of the diaphragm and affects 1 in every 2,000 to 4,000 live births. Currently, there are no studies examining the health outcomes of infants with CDH and the effect of human milk. Research aim: This study aimed to describe the breastfeeding experience of mothers of infants with CDH cared for in the NICU. Methods: A prospective, longitudinal qualitative descriptive design was used. Phased interviews were conducted with a purposive sample of 11 CDH infant–mother dyads from a level 3 NICU in a children’s hospital. Results: Six themes emerged from the data: (a) hopeful for breastfeeding, (b) latching on . . . to the pump, (c) we’ve already worked so hard, (d) getting the hang of it—it’s getting easier, (e) a good safety net, and (f) finding a way that works for us. Conclusion: For this population of CDH infant–mother dyads, the term breastfeeding is not exclusive to direct feeding at the breast and the mothers emphasized the significance of providing their own mother’s milk through a combination of feeding mechanisms to their infants with CDH.

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia is a common developmental anomaly encountered by paediatric surgeons. It is known to be associated with extradiaphragmatic malformations, which include cardiac, renal, genital, and chromosomal abnormalities. Herein, we report a newborn born with concurrent congenital diaphragmatic hernia, Meckel’s diverticulum, and heterotopic pancreatic tissue. This is the first case report of such a triad with description of possible mechanisms of the development.
