“…Recurrence alone may not be the only complication. One case complication was an endobronchial migration of the prosthetic mesh after hernia recurrence, creating a fistula at the right lower bronchus [6]. PTFE is a strong material with good sealant properties, but lacks elasticity necessary for the fluid movements of the diaphragm.…”

Repair of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) continues to pose a dilemma for the pediatric surgeon. While the management of CDH has evolved from surgical urgency to delayed repair after medical optimization with substantial improvements in mortality, morbidity continues to perplex clinicians. Significant morbidity occurs with recurrence, re-recurrence and complications such as obstructions, principally with mesh repair. When primary closure is not possible, mesh repair is indicated. While there are several non-absorbable prosthetic, absorbable biosynthetic and composite mesh types available, the ideal mesh remains elusive. In this article, we reviewed the current materials, reported advantages, and animal and clinical studies of non-absorbable prosthetic, absorbable biosynthetic and composite mesh. However, adequate comparative data are lacking, leaving a wide void for future animal models and clinical studies.

“…La différence entre ces deux tableaux se fait essentiellement par la radio thoracique de face et de profil qui met en évidence, lors d'une récidive, une anse incarcérée à la base du thorax, associée parfois à un épanchement. Plusieurs facteurs viennent augmenter le risque de complications : l'utilisation de prothèses ou de matériels prothétiques [15], le recours à une fermeture progressive de la paroi abdominale (Schulster) en cas de non réintégration possible en un temps de tous les organes en intra-abdominal, la fermeture sous tension de l'orifice diaphragmatique. Ces deux complications nécessitent une reprise chirurgicale, si possible en laparoscopie, pour de ne pas induire de nouvelles adhérences qui pourraient conduire un nouveau tableau occlusif.…”

Hepatic pulmonary fusion is a rare malformation associated with right congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), often only discovered during surgical repair of the defect. Fourteen previous cases have been reported in the literature. We describe a case of a full term male newborn with prenatal ultrasound diagnosis of right CDH who underwent a thoracoscopy converted to a thoracotomy, due to this rare aforementioned intraoperative incidental finding. We reviewed the previous reported literature, especially focusing on the chosen surgical approach, concluding that an early and appropriate preoperative imaging investigation may be crucial for the best management of these kinds of patients.
