Prenatal modulation of the developing lung in congenital diaphragmatic hernia: functional, morphological, and biological consequences for the neonatal lung

Prenatal modulation of the developing lung in congenital diaphragmatic hernia: functional, morphological, and biological consequences for the neonatal lung

INTRODUCTION. Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) combines a congenital malformation of the diaphragm with lung hypoplasia, leading to severe respiratory distress and intractable pulmonary hypertension of the newborn. Despite advances in prenatal diagnosis and neonatal intensive care, CDH is assoc...
