[Pathogenesis of congenital diaphragmatic hernia of the newborn infant: apropos of 2 cases]. 1981

J Dussaut, and G Godlewski, and C Pignodel

On two personal cases of left diaphragmatic congenital hernia, the authors study the innervation of the diaphragm. They describe a lower number of fibres in the phrenic nerve on the side of the malformation and don't find any branches coming from the intercostal nerves. This malformation is probably of neurogenic origin.

D065630	Hernias, Diaphragmatic, Congenital	Protrusion of abdominal structures into the THORAX as a result of embryologic defects in the DIAPHRAGM often present in the neonatal period. It can be isolated, syndromic, non-syndromic or be a part of chromosome abnormality. Associated pulmonary hypoplasia and PULMONARY HYPERTENSION can further complicate stabilization and surgical intervention.
