Abstract
The 11th recorded case of bilateral congenital posterolateral diaphragmatic hernia is here presented. Left-sided diaphragmatic hernia was corrected surgically, while the baby expired because of respiratory failure on the 31st operated day. Autopsy revealed that the baby had right posterolateral diaphragmatic defect with sac. From this experience, it might be said that at surgery for left-sided hernia, right diaphragm should be examined carefully.Entities:
