Objective Severe pulmonary hypoplasia and pulmonary arterial hypertension are associated with reduced survival in congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH (P = 0.83). Delivery occurred at 35.6 ± 2.4 weeks in the FETO group and at 37.4 ± 1.9 weeks in the controls 10/20 (50.0%) (RR, 10.0 (95% CI,) P < 0.01).
Conclusion FETO improves neonatal survival in caseswith isolated severe CDH.
