  • Title: Strangulated congenital diaphragmatic hernia in infants.
    Author: Zamir O, Goldberg M, Lernau OZ, Mogle P, Nissan S.
    Journal: Clin Pediatr (Phila); 1985 Jun; 24(6):354-6. PubMed ID: 3995867.
    Abstract:
    Two previously healthy children, 7 and 12 months old, respectively, presented with respiratory distress and severe sepsis. Chest x-rays were suggestive of inflammatory disease of the left lung. At operation, necrotic bowel was found to be herniated through a left congenital posterolateral diaphragmatic hernia. These patients illustrate the difficulty in establishing the diagnosis of strangulated congenital diaphragmatic hernia and the grave consequences when operation is delayed.
