Background: Bronchopulmonary sequestration (BPS) has long been identified in patients with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), however the reported incidence in the literature varies widely and is not based on large series.
Methods: Version 4 of the Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Study Group (CDHSG) included questions specifically identifying BPS-associated cases. The data were prospectively collected between 2015 and 2020. Clinical characteristics and outcomes for CDH+BPS patients were compared to patients without BPS using univariate and multiple regression analyses.
Results: Out of 2118 total patients, 72 had a pulmonary sequestration (3.4%). The amount of CDH+BPS with high-risk (CDHSG type C and D) defects was significantly greater than those without BPS (68.0% vs 49.3%, respectively; p = 0.001). The need for ECLS (35/72, 48.6%) and overall mortality (21/72, 29.2%) was significantly higher in CDH+BPS. When corrected for hernia size, cardiac and chromosomal anomalies, the need for ECLS (OR 2.2, p = 0.004) and mortality (OR 2.0, p = 0.015) was significantly greater in CDH+BPS.
Conclusions: This is the largest series to look at the incidence of BPS in children with CDH. They are associated with larger defect sizes, a greater need for ECLS and higher mortality than those patients without BPS.

Background: This study aims to address the timing of repair for severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) without the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and to determine the feasibility of an earlier intervention to avoid deaths associated with non-repair in patients who are more challenging to stabilize without ECMO.
Methods: This single-center retrospective study was conducted on neonates with CDH from 2013 to 2023. Based on the timing of surgery, the patients were classified into three groups: <24 hours (group A), 24-48 hours (group B) and ≥48 hours (group C).

Background: Intrathoracic kidney (ITK) is a rare congenital disease, with only about 40 pediatric cases reported worldwide to date. ITK associated with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is even rarer, and we report a case of an infant with ITK combined with a giant CDH.
Case Description And Management: A six-month-old male infant was hospitalized due to "vomiting for 4 days".

Purpose: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are stable, non-coding RNAs with tissue- and developmental-specific expression making them suitable biomarkers for congenital anomalies. Current circRNA discovery pipelines have focused on human and mouse. We aim to bridge this gap by combining bioinformatics resources and used circtial1 as a model candidate in the nitrofen rat model of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH).

Purpose: Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is associated with congenital heart disease (CHD) and index newborns reportedly may experience cardiac arrhythmia disorders [Tella et al.-Pediatric Critical Care Medicine 2022]. This study analyses, details and reports contemporary outcome metrics of CHD and cardiac rhythm disease (CRD) in CDH babies attending a university surgical centre.

Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the Oxygen Saturation Index (OSI) as a noninvasive measure for early postnatal management and outcome prediction in neonates with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). Additionally, the study analyzed the correlation and predictive ability of OSI, Oxygenation Index (OI), Horovitz Index (HI), and partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO) regarding mortality and the need for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).
Methods: A retrospective, single-center study using data from 2013 to 2020.
