Abstract
Pulmonary capillary hemangiomatosis (PCH) is a rare cause of pulmonary hypertension (PHTN). We present a neonate with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and concurrent PCH. Severe PHTN was unrelenting and death occurred at 4 months. Diagnosis of PCH is challenging in the setting of CDH and portends a poor prognosis.Entities:
