Description
Pleuroperitoneal hernia is the type of congenital diaphragmatic hernia most frequently seen by the clinician. The operative mortality rates are high, particularly in the newborn and extensive cardiorespiratory embarrassment is involved. The prognosis of pleuroperitoneal hernia is closely related to pre- and postoperative cardiorespiratory conditions. The relationship of this entity to the fetal circulation is emphasized.
