Abstract

Overall survival of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) patients has increased since the widespread implementation of delayed operative repair with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation/gentle ventilation strategies starting in the mid-1990s. With the improvements in survival, CDH survivorship has been marked by increased and early childhood. The multisystem morbidity and complexity of care for these patients mandate the dedicated resources and focus of medical specialties to ensure that the neurodevelopmental, cardiopulmonary, nutritional, and surgical sequelae of CDH are properly addressed.
