Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) occurs with a frequency of 1 per 2000 - 4000 live births, but at present, surgical treatment of EDC, especially in newborns, remains one of the difficult tasks of pediatric surgeons, anesthesiologists, and resuscitators. The numbers of postoperative lethality can reach high values, 35-50% of children die from surgery, besides, 32% of CDH children are born dead. The highest mortality rate is characteristic for agenesia of the diaphragm dome. False CDHs are more common, in one-sided cases left-sided defects in the diaphragm prevail occurring 4-16 times more often. The authors presented their own experience - a description of a rare clinical case of right-sided false diaphragmatic hernia in a newborn infant and its successful thoracoscopic treatment.
