Late presentation of congenital diaphragmatic hernia: a case report.
[congenital diaphragmatic hernia]
Delayed
herniation
of
the
abdominal
contents
through
a
congenital
diaphragmatic
hernia
may
occur
beyond
the
neonatal
period
.
This
report
describes
a
9
-
week
-old
female
baby
who
presented
with
excessive
crying
,
irritability
and
respiratory
distress
secondary
to
late
presentation
of
left-sided
congenital
diaphragmatic
hernia
.
The
chest
radiograph
showed
tension
gastrothorax
.
She
underwent
surgical
reduction
of
the
hernia
.
She
made
an
excellent
recovery
and
was
discharged
a
few
days
after
the
operation
.
It
is
assumed
that
sudden
increase
of
the
intra-
abdominal
pressure
caused
herniation
of
abdominal
content
through
a
pre-existing
diaphragmatic
defect
.
This
report
aims
to
increase
the
awareness
of
this
condition
among
physicians
and
pediatric
surgeons
to
allow
early
diagnosis
and
management
.
