Abstract
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is sometimes seen in siblings but is rarely seen in twins, and five survived cases of CDH in monozygotic or dizygotic twins have been reported in the English literature. Here we report a sixth survived case of CDH in dizygotic twins which was prenatally diagnosed as a very severe type and was successfully treated by our intensive care team composed of obstetricians, neonatologists, surgeons and anesthesiologists. •Congenital diaphragmatic hernia in dizygotic twins are reported. •This is the sixth case in the English literature. •There was no chromosomal abnormality in twins and the exact etiology is unclear.
