Overview
Classification
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia can be classified into three types according to the site of herniation.[1][2]
Posterolateral (Bochdalek) diaphragmatic hernia
- It is the most common subtype.
- Most commonly occurs on the left side and rarely occurs bilaterally.
Anterior (Morgagni) diaphragmatic hernia
- In anterior diaphragmatic hernia, the intestine bulges into the thorax through the anterior midline.
- Most of the cases of anterior diaphragmatic hernia occur on the right side.
Hiatal hernia
- The intestine finds its way to the thorax through the esophageal hiatus.
- More common in the adults than in neonates.
