Synopsis: Babies affected by congenital diaphragmatic hernia face a difficult start to life because their lungs are too small and the pulmonary blood vessels have not developed properly. To allow these babies (and their parents) to breathe a little easier, we are investigating fetal surgical procedures that stimulate lung growth, fetal medical therapies that improve pulmonary vascular development, and changes to neonatal management that allow more blood to flow through the lungs at birth.
