Abstract

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia is a relatively rare birth defect with unknown etiology. Its association with other anomalies and distinct clinical patterns suggest that several causes may be involved. Congenital diaphragmatic hernia occurs in 1 in 2500 live births. In 85% of cases the defect is left-sided [ 1]. Most cases of congenital diaphragmatic herniaare sporadic and familial congenital diaphragmatic herniais rare, comprising only 2% of congenital diaphragmatic herniacases[2]. Thiscongenital anomaly can almost always be recognized with prenatal ultrasound screening. There is a high degree of variability in both treatment and outcomes. Bilateral congenital diaphragmatic hernia is a rare birth defect, with grim prognosis. We describe a case of bilateral congenital diaphragmatic hernia discovered while repartitioning right sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia. The diaphragmatic defect was repaired and a prolene mesh was placed on the abdominal wound to avoid abdominal compartment syndrome. The patient nonetheless died post operatively due to severe pulmonary hypertension. Bilateral congenital diaphragmatic hernia, priorly identified through a limited number of case reports, is extremely rare. The care of congenital diaphragmatic hernia patients is very difficult for neonatologists and surgeons. Our report particularly the management and outcome of patients with bilateral congenital diaphragmatic hernia.

Bi̇lateral Konjeni̇tal Di̇yafragmati̇k Herni̇: Nadi̇r Bi̇r Olgu

Abstract

Konjenital diyafragma hernisi nedeni bilinmeyen, oldukça nadir görülen bir doğumsal anomalidir. Diğer anomaliler ile ilişkisi ve farklı klinik desenleri ile çeşitli nedenleri olabileceğini düşündürmektedir. Konjenital diyafragma hernisi 2.500 canlı doğumda 1 görülür. Olguların% 85’inde defekt [1] sol taraflıdır. Konjenital diyafragma hernisi vakalarının çoğu sporadiktir. Ailesel
konjenital diyafragma hernisi, tüm vakaların sadece % 2‘ sini [2] oluşturur, oldukça nadirdir. Bu konjenital anomali hemen hemen her zaman doğum öncesi ultrasonografik muayene ile tanınabilir. Tedavisi ile sonuçlar herninin derecesine göre değişkenlik gösterir. Bilateral konjenital diyafragma hernisi kötü prognozile, nadir bir doğumsal anomalidir. Biz sağ taraflı konjenital diyafragma hernisi operasyon sırasında keşfedilen bilateral konjenital diyafragma hernisi olgusu sunulmuştur. Diyafragmatik defekt onarıldı ve bir prolen örgü abdominal kompartman sendromu önlemek için karın yara yerleştirildi. Hasta yine de ameliyat sonrası ciddi pulmoner hipertansiyon nedeniyle öldü. Öncelikle olgu sınırlı sayıda olup bilateral konjenital diyafragma hernisi, son derece nadirdir. CDH hasta bakımı yenidoğan ve cerrahlar için çok zordur. Olgumuzu sunmamızın amacı özellikle bilateral konjenital diyafragma hernisi olan hastaların tedavi ve sonuçlarını değerlendirmektir.
