OUR EXPERIENCE IN PREOPERATIVE PREPARATION OF NEWBORNS FOR THE TREATMENT OF CONGENITAL DIAPHRAGMIC HERNIAS IN CHILDREN.

Congenital diaphragmatic hernias (CDH) occur in 2% of all types of hernias among children with various congenital diseases. Due to insufficient diagnostic capabilities, especially in the pre-hospital period, delayed diagnosis leads to the progression of disease complications. Often, these processes also result in delayed surgery, which significantly impacts the complexity of the operation, consequently increasing the number of postoperative complications and mortality rates. The overall state of medical care and the level of development of diagnostic methods in each region also play a significant role in the occurrence of such adverse events.
