“…surfactant; lung growth; fetus SEVERE CONGENITAL DIAPHRAGMATIC hernia (DH) is associated with high postnatal morbidity and mortality due to a combination of reduced surface area available for the diffusion of respiratory gases (20) and impaired pulmonary perfusion secondary to pulmonary hypertension (23). Postnatal treatment of infants with pulmonary hypoplasia, including extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, inhaled nitric oxide therapy, and ventilator strategies that minimize ventilator-induced lung injury, may often be of minimal benefit to infants with severe congenital DH due to underlying gross deficits in pulmonary tissue.…”

“…Respiratory function studies in neonatal diaphragmatic disorders have been performed by Murdock, Burrington, and Swyer (1971). In 10 newborns with congenital diaphragmatic hernia they found a marked increase of the alveolar-arterial P02 values, taken during such an attempt on the second day of life, are shown in Table I (44, 44 * 5, and 45 hours).…”

“…Overall, the mortality rate remains elevated despite advances in neonatal resuscitation and intensive care [2,3]. Mortality is attributed mainly to a lethal combination of lung hypoplasia [4,5], pulmonary hypertension [6,7], and right-to-left shunting [8][9][10].Endothelins (ETs) consist of a family of three 21 amino acid peptides (ET-1, ET-2, and ET-3) with potent vasoactive, bronchoactive, and promitogenic activities [11][12][13][14].
