Congenital right-sided diaphragmatic hernias are a special form of diaphragmatic hernias. A relatively low frequency and features of anatomy, diagnosis clinical course, and survival characterize them.
Objective: to analyze the results of treatment of right-sided diaphragmatic hernias in newborns.
Materials and methods: a retrospective analysis of the medical records and autopsy protocols of 22 newborns with right-sided diaphragm defect, who were in the clinics of the State Institution «IPAG named after academician O.M. Lukyanova of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine», was carried out for the last 37 years.
Results: in 3 cases stillbirth was stated, in all live-born children (n=19) with right-sided СDH the defect was symptomatic. Moreover, in 84.2% (n=16) of them, symptoms of the disease occurred immediately after birth, in 10.5% (n=2) – from the first to 6 hours of life, in 5.3% (n=1) – after 24 hours, from birth. Signs of pulmonary hypertension were determined based on the difference between pre- and postductal peripheral blood saturation. Thus, in 62.5% (n=5) of operated children and in 63.6% (n=7) who died at the stages of stabilization, the difference in pre- and postductal saturation was more than 10%, whichindicated the presence of 100% pulmonary hypertension, and blood shunting from right to left, through fetal communications. The time of preoperative stabilization ranged from 1 to 23 days, on average 7.25 days. 8 children were operated. The surgical approach was right-sided subcostal laparotomy (n=5) or right-sided thoracotomy (n=2). In one case, there was a combined approach: right-sided laparotomy + right-sided thoracotomy. 5 children survived, 3 died.
The research was carried out in accordance with the principles of the Helsinki Declaration. The study protocol was approved by the Local Ethics Committee of participating institution.
