Abstract Group B streptococcal sepsis was associated with delayed presentation of an unsuspected right-sided diaphragmatic hernia in two neonates. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The relationship between a delayed-onset diaphragmatic hernia and a group B streptococcal infection is still unknown. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Abstract The term "hydrops fetalis" denotes generalized fetal edema, a condition that differs from localized edema confined to head, extremities, or body cavities. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Increased intrathoracic pressure caused by mechanical ventilation coupled with an abnormal lung compliance due to inflammation may have resulted in the delayed herniation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Abstract We report a case of a right-sided diaphragmatic hernia in a premature twin, which presented in the 2nd week of life with a persistent pleural effusion following a bowel perforation due to necrotizing enterocolitis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Abstract A case of right-sided diaphragmatic hernia following group B streptococcal pneumonia and sepsis is reported herein. The clinical course was characteristic. The position of the right hemidiaphragm was initially normal. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Twenty-eight months later, he presented with recurrent right upper abdominal pain. Radiographic workup revealed a right-sided DH. He underwent laparotomy and primary repair of the diaphragmatic defect. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

METHODS: Our patient is a 42-y-old gravid woman who, at 27 wk gestation, was admitted to the gynecology service with a 2-d history of right upper quadrant abdominal pain, right shoulder pain, abdominal distension, and obstipation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

He had presented with cough for one month and respiratory difficulty for one-week duration and history of bilious vomiting two days prior to admission. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The presence of congenital hypertrophic pyloric stenosis in 25% of infants suggests a degree of predisposition. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

He required antimicrobial therapy and mechanical ventilation and initially did well, although he exhibited jaundice and cholestasis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

METHODS: Our patient is a 42-y-old gravid woman who, at 27 wk gestation, was admitted to the gynecology service with a 2-d history of right upper quadrant abdominal pain, right shoulder pain, abdominal distension, and obstipation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In the third week, the X-ray suggested some bowel loops in the right hemithorax. A right-sided diaphragmatic hernia was confirmed by a CT-scan, and surgery was performed with good outcome. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Localized fetal edema may be confused with hydrops fetalis. Fetal edema of the head and neck may result from obstruction of the superior vena cava by abnormal mediastinal structures. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Seven months after the repair, the patient remains well and free from symptoms, with a normal chest X-ray. Right-sided DH is rare but may occur after living donor liver transplant. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
