Congenital Cystic Diaphragm with Diaphragmatic Eventration in a Fetus: A Case Presentation.

Introduction

Congenital diaphragmatic eventration (CDE) is defined as the abnormal elevation of the diaphragm, due to incomplete muscularization of the diaphragm with a thin membranous sheet replacing normal diaphragmatic muscle. Case report: We report a prenatal case with a diaphragmatic mesothelial cyst combined with CDE.

Conclusion

A large cystic mass between the thoracic wall and the liver in early pregnancy is highly suggestive of cystic diaphragm.
