Abstract
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a life-threatening birth defect with significant morbidity and mortality. The prenatal management of a pregnancy with a fetus affected with CDH is complex and requires a multi-disciplinary team approach. An improved understanding of prenatal diagnosis and management is essential to developing strategies to optimize outcomes for these patients. In this review, we explore the current knowledge on diagnosis, severity stratification, prognostic prediction, and indications for fetal intervention in the fetus with CDH.
