[Bilateral diaphragmatic hernia. Apropos of 2 cases]. 1987

V Brossard, and C Fessard, and A Becret, and J P Lemoine

Two cases of bilateral posterolateral diaphragmatic hernia are reported, due to their rarity. Both rapidly led to death. One of them was associated with severe malformations of the upper limbs. An abnormality of the cervical segment of the neural crest at the end of the first month of pregnancy may explain both types of malformations.
