[PMID: 38797992 DOI: 10.1002/pd.6593] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2022] [Revised: 03/15/2024] [Accepted: 05/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aim to provide a template structured report of fetal Magnetic Resonance Imaging in congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) that was locally validated by the CDH study group in Mannheim. METHODS A selection of 50 fetal MRIs of patients with an isolated diaphragmatic hernia and associated radiology reports from five different senior radiologists from a single center resulted in a primary structured report, which was put into practice by using dedicated software. A questionnaire survey of the interdisciplinary CDH study group Mannheim was used to adapt the report to the clinical requirements. RESULTS There was a huge variability in how deep the free text reports go into detail. The side of the hernia was named in 94% of cases. In 58%, both the lung volume and the total lung volume were reported. A comparison with the expected lung volume was reported in 66% of cases. Additional findings, such as herniated organs, were reported in 96% of cases. Overall satisfaction with the newly established structured report was high within the CDH study group with a mean of 4.7. CONCLUSIONS The use of the structured report of this study can optimize the interdisciplinary dialog, the standardization of report content, increase report completeness and improve quality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The Canadian Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) Collaborative sought to make its existing clinical practice guideline, published in 2018, into a 'living document'. DESIGN AND MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Critical appraisal of CDH literature adhering to Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) methodology. Evidence accumulated between 1 January 2017 and 30 August 2022 was analysed to inform changes to existing or the development of new CDH care recommendations. Strength of consensus was also determined using a modified Delphi process among national experts in the field. RESULTS Of the 3868 articles retrieved in our search that covered the 15 areas of CDH care, 459 underwent full-text review. Ultimately, 103 articles were used to inform 20 changes to existing recommendations, which included aspects related to prenatal diagnosis, echocardiographic evaluation, pulmonary hypertension management, surgical readiness criteria, the type of surgical repair and long-term health surveillance. Fifteen new CDH care recommendations were also created using this evidence, with most related to the management of pain and the provision of analgesia and neuromuscular blockade for patients with CDH. CONCLUSIONS The 2023 Canadian CDH Collaborative's clinical practice guideline update provides a management framework for infants and children with CDH based on the best available evidence and expert consensus.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION For patients with a congenital diaphragmatic hernia, conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) and high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) are used in initial ventilatory management. HFOV has recently been recommended as a rescue therapy; however, we use HFOV for initial ventilation management, with a preoperative challenge test for CMV conversion and respiratory function testing at the time of CMV conversion. We aimed to compare patient characteristics between CMV conversion- and HFOV-preferred treatment groups. METHODS Ventilator settings and blood gases were retrospectively evaluated pre- and post-CMV conversion, and respiratory function tests for compliance of the respiratory system (Crs) and for resistance of the respiratory system (Rrs) were performed during the trial to CMV conversion. RESULTS No differences were observed between the CMV conversion- and HFOV-preferred groups regarding gestational age, birth weight, and observed/expected lung area-to-head circumference ratios. The median Crs (ml/cmH2 O/kg) and Rrs (cmH2 O・kg/L/s) in the CMV conversion- and HFOV-preferred groups was 0.42 versus 0.53 (p = .44) and 467 versus 327 (p = .045), respectively. The pre and posttrial amount of change in blood gas levels and ventilator parameters in the CMV conversion- and HFOV-preferred groups were as follows: mean airway pressure, -2.0 versus 0 cmH2 O; partial pressure of carbon dioxide, 6.1 versus 2.9 Torr; alveolar-arterial oxygen difference, -39.5 versus -50 Torr; and oxygenation index, -1.0 versus -0.6; respectively. CONCLUSION Respiratory function tests were useful in tailoring ventilator settings. Patients with high Rrs values responded better to CMV conversion.

Transpyloric Tube Placement Shortens Time to Full Feeding in Left Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia. J Pediatr Surg 2023; 58:2098-2104. [PMID: 37507336 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpedsurg.2023.06.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2023] [Revised: 06/14/2023] [Accepted: 06/27/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nutritional complications have an impact in both short- and long-term morbidity of patients with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). We aimed to compare time to full enteral tube feeding depending on route -gastric (GT) or transpyloric (TPT)- in newborns with left CDH (L-CDH). METHODS Retrospective cohort study of L-CDH patients admitted to a referral tertiary care NICU between January 2007 and December 2014. Lethal chromosomal abnormalities and death before initiation of enteral nutrition were exclusion criteria. RESULTS 37 patients were fed through GT, 46 by TPT. TPT children took 11.0 (6.8) days to reach full enteral tube feeding and spent 16.6 (8.1) days on parenteral nutrition vs 16.8 (14.7) days (p = 0.041) and 22.7 (13.5) days (p = 0.020) of GT patients. TPT children had 3.9 (2.4) days of fasting due to GI issues and 20% had episodes of decreased rates of enteral nutrition for extra-GI complications vs 11.4 (11.1) days (p = 0.028) and 49% (p = 0.006). According to the best fitting model (R2 0.383, p < 0.001), the TPT-group achieved full enteral feeding 8.4 days earlier than the GT-group (95% CI -14.76 to - 2.02 days), after adjustment by severity of illness during the first days, o/e LHR_liver and class of diaphragmatic defect. There were no differences in growth outcomes and length of stay between survivors of GT and TPT groups. CONCLUSION TPT shortens time to full enteral nutrition, especially in the most severe L-CDH patients. We propose that placement of a TPT at the end of the surgical repair procedure should be considered, especially in higher-risk patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Treatment study, Level III. Retrospective comparative, case-control study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To describe the outcomes of preterm born infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH; ≤32.0 weeks of gestation) and the associations between prenatal imaging markers and survival. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING Multicentre study in large referral centres. POPULATION Infants with an isolated unilateral CDH, live born at 32.0 weeks or less of gestation, between January 2009 and January 2020. METHODS Neonatal outcomes were evaluated for infants that were expectantly managed during pregnancy and infants that underwent fetoscopic endoluminal tracheal occlusion (FETO) therapy, separately. We evaluated the association between prenatal imaging markers and survival to discharge. Prenatal imaging markers included observed to expected lung-to-head ratio (o/e LHR), side of the defect, liver position, stomach position grade, and observed to expected total fetal lung volume (o/e TFLV). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE Survival to discharge. RESULTS We included 53 infants born at 30+4 (interquartile range 29+1 -31+2 ) weeks. Survival in fetuses expectantly managed during pregnancy was 48% (13/27) in left-sided CDH and 33% (2/6) in right-sided CDH. Survival in fetuses that underwent FETO therapy was 50% (6/12) in left-sided CDH and 25% (2/8) in right-sided CDH. The o/e LHR at baseline was positively associated with survival in cases expectantly managed during pregnancy (odds ratio [OR] 1.20, 95% CI 1.07-1.42, p < 0.01), but not in cases that received FETO therapy (OR 1.01, 95% CI 0.88-1.15, p = 0.87). Stomach position grade (p = 0.03) and o/e TFLV were associated with survival (p = 0.02); liver position was not (p = 0.13). CONCLUSIONS In infants with CDH born at or before 32 weeks of gestation, prenatal imaging markers of disease severity were associated with postnatal survival.

Intraoperative Transpyloric Tube Insertion for Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia: Analysis of Japanese Study Group Data. J Pediatr Surg 2023; 58:1663-1669. [PMID: 37032194 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpedsurg.2023.03.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2022] [Revised: 02/16/2023] [Accepted: 03/05/2023] [Indexed: 04/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a severe congenital disease. Some CDH infants suffer from gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD), even after surgical correction of gastric position. A transpyloric tube (TPT) is inserted into CDH patients under direct observation intraoperatively in some hospitals in Japan to establish early enteral feeding. This strategy avoids gastric expansion to maintain a better respiratory condition. However, it is unclear whether the strategy has a secure effect for patient prognosis. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of intraoperative TPT insertion on enteral feeding and postoperative weight gain. METHODS The Japanese CDH Study Group database was used to identify infants with CDH born between 2011 and 2016, who were then divided into two groups: the TPT group and gastric tube (GT) group. In the TPT group, infants underwent intraoperative TPT insertion; postoperative insertion/extraction of TPT was irrelevant to the analysis. Weight growth velocity (WGV) was calculated using the exponential model. Subgroup analysis was performed using Kitano's gastric position classification. RESULTS We analyzed 204 infants, of which 99 and 105 were in the TPT and GT groups, respectively. Enteral nutrition (EN) in the TPT and GT groups was 52 ± 39 and 44 ± 41 kcal/kg/day (p = 0.17) at age 14 days (EN14), respectively, and 83 ± 40 and 78 ± 45 kcal/kg/day (p = 0.46) at age 21 days (EN21), respectively. WGV30 (WGV from day 0 to day 30) in the TPT and GT groups was 2.3 ± 3.0 and 2.8 ± 3.8 g/kg/day (p = 0.30), respectively, and WGV60 (WGV from day 0 to day 60) was 5.1 ± 2.3 and 6.0 ± 2.5 g/kg/day (p = 0.03), respectively. In infants with Kitano's Grade 2 + 3, EN14 in the TPT and GT groups was 38 ± 35 and 29 ± 35 kcal/kg/day (p = 0.24), respectively, EN21 was 73 ± 40 and 58 ± 45 kcal/kg/day (p = 0.13), respectively, WGV30 was 2.3 ± 3.2 and 2.0 ± 4.3 g/kg/day (p = 0.76), respectively, and WGV60 was 4.6 ± 2.3 and 5.2 ± 2.3 g/kg/day (p = 0.30), respectively. CONCLUSION Intraoperative TPT insertion did not improve nutritional intake and WGV30. WGV60 in TPT was less than that in GT. In Grade 2 + 3 subgroup analysis, TPT also had no advantage. We could not recommend routine TPT insertion at surgery. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) is diagnosed prenatally in ~60% of cases. Prenatal measures typically guide management and prognostication. Simple postnatal prognosticators are needed when prenatal diagnosis is lacking. We hypothesized that preoperative orogastric tube (OGT) tip position relative to the contralateral diaphragm correlates with defect severity, resource utilization, and clinical outcomes regardless of diagnostic status. STUDY DESIGN 150 neonates with left-posterolateral CDH were analyzed. Impact of intrathoracic and intraabdominal preoperative tip position on clinical outcomes was compared. RESULTS Ninety-nine neonates were prenatally diagnosed. Overall, intrathoracic position significantly correlated with larger diaphragmatic defects, advanced postnatal pulmonary support requirements (HFOV, pulmonary vasodilators, and ECMO), operative complexity, longer hospitalization, and poorer survival to discharge. These observations persisted when analyzing only cases lacking prenatal diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative OGT tip position predicts defect severity, resource utilization, and outcomes in CDH. This observation enhances postnatal prognostication and care planning for neonates without a prenatal diagnosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the survival and intact-survival rates among preterm infants with congenital diaphragm hernia (CDH). STUDY DESIGN Multicenter retrospective cohort study of 849 infants born between 2006 and 2020 at 15 Japanese CDH study group facilities. Multivariate logistic regression analysis adjusted using inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) method was used. We also compare trends of intact-survival rates among term and preterm infants with CDH. RESULTS After adjusting using the IPTW method for CDH severity, sex, APGAR score at 5 min, and cesarean delivery, gestational age and survival rates have a significantly positive correlation [coefficient of determination (COEF) 3.40, 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.58-5.21, p value <0.001] and higher intact-survival rate [COEF 2.39, 95% CI, 1.73-4.06, p value 0.005]. Trends of intact-survival rates for both preterm and term infants had significantly changed, but improvement in preterm infants was much smaller than in term infants. CONCLUSION Prematurity was a significant risk factor for survival and intact-survival among infants with CDH, regardless of adjustment for CDH severity.

Does Prediction of Neonatal Mortality by the Observed/Expected Lung-To-Head Ratio Change during Pregnancy in Fetuses with Left Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia? Fetal Diagn Ther 2023; 50:438-445. [PMID: 37285832 DOI: 10.1159/000531406] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2022] [Accepted: 05/25/2023] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to evaluate prediction of neonatal mortality in fetuses with isolated left congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) when the observed/expected lung-to-head ratio (O/E LHR) was estimated at two different gestational time points during pregnancy. METHODS Forty-four (44) fetuses with isolated left CDH were included. O/E LHR was estimated at the time of referral (first scan) and before delivery (last scan). The main outcome was neonatal death due to respiratory complications. RESULTS There were 10/44 (22.7%) perinatal deaths. The areas under (AU) the ROC curves were: first scan, 0.76, best O/E LHR cut-off 35.5% with 76% sensitivity and 70% specificity; last scan, AU-ROC 0.79, best O/E LHR cut-off 35.2%, with 79.0% sensitivity and 80% specificity. Considering an O/E LHR cut-off ≤35% to define high-risk fetuses at any examination, prediction for perinatal mortality showed: 80% sensitivity, 73.5% specificity, 47.1% positive and 92.6% negative predictive values, and 3.02 (95% CI 1.59-5.73) positive and 0.27 (95% CI 0.08-0.96) negative likelihood ratios. Prediction was similar in the two evaluations as 16/21 (76.2%) of fetuses considered at risk had an O/E LHR ≤35% in the two examinations; in the remaining 5 cases, two were identified only in the first and three only in the last scan. CONCLUSION The O/E LHR is a good predictor of perinatal death in fetuses with left isolated CDH. Approximately 80% of fetuses at risk of perinatal death can be identified with an O/E LHR ≤35%, and 90% of them will have similar O/E LHR values at the first and at the last ultrasound examinations prior to delivery. In general, 88.6% of all CDH fetuses have a similar severity classification based on the O/E LHR at the first diagnostic ultrasound or at the ultrasound examination prior to delivery.

Abstract
The outcome for infants with fetal lung pathologies not only depends on the nature of the pathology, but the impact it has on the developing lungs. The main prognostic factor is the degree of pulmonary hypoplasia, but this is not detectable pre-natally. Imaging techniques aim to simulate these features with a variety of surrogate measurements, including lung volume and MRI signal intensity. Despite the complexity of the various research studies and lack of consistent methodology, this scoping review aims to summarise current applications, and promising techniques requiring further investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mortality prediction of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is essential for developing treatment strategies, including fetal therapy. Several researchers have reported prognostic factors for this rare but life-threatening condition; however, the optimal combination of prognostic factors remains to be elucidated. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to develop the most discriminative prenatal and postnatal models to predict the mortality of infants with an isolated left-sided CDH. METHODS This multi-institutional retrospective cohort study included infants with CDH born at 15 tertiary hospitals of the Japanese CDH Study Group between 2011 and 2016. We developed multivariable logistic models with every possible combination of predictors and identified models with the highest cross-validated area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) for prenatal and postnatal predictions. RESULTS Among 302 eligible infants, 44 died before discharge. The prenatal mortality prediction model was based on the observed/expected lung area to head circumference ratio (O/E LHR), liver herniation, and stomach herniation (AUC, 0.830). The postnatal mortality prediction model was based on O/E LHR, liver herniation, and the lowest oxygenation index (AUC, 0.944). CONCLUSION Our models can facilitate the prenatal and postnatal mortality prediction of infants with isolated left-sided CDH.

The efficacy of the postnatal nasogastric tube position as a prognostic marker of left-sided isolated congenital diaphragmatic hernia. Pediatr Surg Int 2022; 38:1873-1880. [PMID: 36138323 DOI: 10.1007/s00383-022-05226-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 09/05/2022] [Indexed: 10/14/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The prenatal diagnosis of the stomach position in congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) has been a reliable prognostic factor, but few studies have focused on the postnatal position. We therefore evaluated the significance of the nasogastric (NG) tube position just after birth. METHODS The Japanese CDH Study Group database enrolled 1037 CDH neonates over 15 years. In our multicenter retrospective study, 464 cases of left-sided isolated CDH with prenatal diagnoses were divided into two groups: NG tube below the diaphragm (BD; n = 190) or above the diaphragm (AD; n = 274). The primary outcome was the 90-day survival rate, and the secondary outcomes were mechanical ventilation duration, hospitalization duration, and recurrence rate. RESULTS The BD group had a significantly higher 90-day survival rate (98.4 vs. 89.4%, p < 0.001), shorter mechanical ventilation (11 vs. 19 days, p < 0.001), shorter hospitalization (38 vs. 59 days, p < 0.001), and lower recurrence rate (p = 0.002) than the AD group. A multivariate analysis showed that BD (adjusted odds ratio, 3.68; 95% confidence interval 1.02-13.30) was a favorable prognostic factor for the 90-day survival. CONCLUSION The assessment of the NG tube position revealed it to be a reliable prognostic factor of left-sided isolated CDH. Therefore, it should be included as a routine assessment.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to evaluate prenatal predictors of mortality in fetuses with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). METHODS A systematic literature search was performed to identify relevant observational studies that evaluated the ability of lung-to-head ratio (LHR), observed-to-expected LHR (o/e-LHR), observed-to-expected total fetal lung volume (o/e-TFLV), lung-to-thorax transverse area ratio (L/T ratio), intrathoracic herniation of the liver and the stomach, and side of diaphragmatic hernia, using a threshold for the prediction of mortality in fetuses with CDH. Study quality was assessed using the QUADAS-2 tool. Hierarchical summary receiver operating characteristic curves were constructed. RESULTS A total of 50 articles were included in this meta-analysis. The QUADAS-2 tool identified a high risk of bias in more than one domain scored in all parameters. Among those parameters, the diagnostic odds ratio of mortality with o/e-LHR < 25%, o/e-TFLV < 25%, and L/T ratio < 0.08 were 11.98 [95% confidence interval (CI) 4.65-30.89], 11.14 (95% CI 5.19-23.89), and 10.28 (95% CI 3.38-31.31), respectively. The predictive values for mortality were similar between the presence of liver herniation and retrocardiac fetal stomach position. CONCLUSIONS This systematic review suggests that o/e-LHR, o/e-TFLV, and L/T ratio are equally good predictors of neonatal mortality in fetuses with isolated CDH.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) are at risk of neurodevelopmental disabilities. This study aimed to investigate the association between lung to thorax transverse area ratio (LTR) and neurodevelopmental outcomes at 3 years of age in fetuses with CDH. METHODS We performed a retrospective study of infants with prenatally diagnosed isolated left-sided CDH born in Kyushu University Hospital between 2008 and 2016. We examined the association between prenatal ultrasound findings including LTR and development quotient (DQ) at 36 to 42 months of chronological age. RESULTS We identified 34 live-born fetuses with isolated left-sided CDH, of which 30 survived and four died before discharge. The median LTR in the survivors was higher than in the non-survivors (p < 0.01). Among the survivors, 26 had available data on LTR (median 0.12, range 0.08-0.18) and overall DQ at 3 years of age (93, 61-112). Their median gestational age and birth weight were 37.6 (range 34.4-39.1) weeks and 2716 (2.256-3494) grams, respectively. There was no significant difference in overall DQ scores between the two groups divided according to the median LTR values (p = 0.62). LTR values were not associated with overall DQ scores after adjusting for gestational age (p = 0.39). In addition, no association was observed between LTR values and any subscale DQ scores. CONCLUSION In fetuses with isolated left-sided CDH, prenatal LTR predicts the mortality but not neurodevelopmental outcomes at 3 years of age.

Abstract
Aim To review new challenges of fetal therapy in Japan after the establishment of four existing fetal therapies as standard prenatal care with National Health Insurance coverage over the past 20 years. Methods Reported studies and our current research activities related to four fetal therapies newly performed in Japan were reviewed. Results Fetoscopic endoluminal tracheal occlusion (FETO) for congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) aims to occlude the trachea using a detachable balloon to promote lung growth. Following the recent successful completion of an international randomized controlled trial for CDH, in which we participated, FETO is offered for severe left CDH to perform balloon insertion at 27–29 weeks and removal at 34 weeks of gestation. Fetal cystoscopy (FC) for low urinary tract obstruction was introduced to overcome the demerits of vesicoamniotic shunting. FC may provide a proper diagnosis by visual observation of the urethra and physiological treatment of the posterior urethral valve. The effectiveness of open fetal surgery for myelomeningocele (MMC), direct surgery with laparotomy and hysterotomy, for ameliorating hindbrain herniation and the motor function was demonstrated, but it was also associated with substantial maternal and fetal risks. Fetal aortic valvuloplasty (FAV), ultrasound‐guided fetal aortic balloon dilation for critical aortic stenosis with evolving hypoplastic left heart syndrome may improve left heart development and maintain biventricular circulation. Feasibility and safety studies for FC, MMC open fetal surgery, and FAV are currently ongoing. Conclusions Clinical research on FETO, FC, MMC open fetal surgery, and FAV has proceeded with careful preparations in Japan.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In recent years, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has largely increased our knowledge and predictive accuracy of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) in the fetus. Thanks to its technical advantages, better anatomical definition, and superiority in fetal lung volume estimation, fetal MRI has been demonstrated to be superior to 2D and 3D ultrasound alone in CDH diagnosis and outcome prediction. This is of crucial importance for prenatal counseling, risk stratification, and decision-making approach. Furthermore, several quantitative and qualitative parameters can be evaluated simultaneously, which have been associated with survival, postnatal course severity, and long-term morbidity. CONCLUSION Fetal MRI will further strengthen its role in the near future, but it is necessary to reach a consensus on indications, methodology, and data interpretation. In addition, it is required data integration from different imaging modalities and clinical courses, especially for predicting postnatal pulmonary hypertension. This would lead to a comprehensive prognostic assessment. WHAT IS KNOWN • MRI plays a key role in evaluating the fetal lung in patients with CDH. • Prognostic assessment of CDH is challenging, and advanced imaging is crucial for a complete prenatal assessment and counseling. WHAT IS NEW • Fetal MRI has strengthened its role over ultrasound due to its technical advantages, better anatomical definition, superior fetal lung volume estimation, and outcome prediction. • Imaging and clinical data integration is the most desirable strategy and may provide new MRI applications and future research opportunities.

Abstract
PURPOSE Predicting lethal pulmonary hypoplasia in infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) before extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) initiation is difficult. This study aimed to predict lethal pulmonary hypoplasia in patients with CDH prior to ECMO. METHODS This was a multicenter cohort study involving neonates prenatally diagnosed with isolated unilateral CDH (born 2006-2020). Patients who required ECMO due to respiratory insufficiency were included in this study. Patients who underwent ECMO due to transient disorders were excluded from analysis. Blood gas analysis data within 24 h of birth were compared between survivors and non-survivors. Predictive abilities were assessed for factors with significant differences. RESULTS Overall, 34 patients were included (18 survivors and 16 non-survivors). The best pre-ductal PaO2 was significantly lower in non-survivors than in survivors (50.4 [IQR 30.3-64.5] vs. 67.5 [IQR 52.4-103.2] mmHg, respectively; p = 0.047). A cutoff PaO2 of 42.9 mmHg had a sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive value of 50.0%, 94.4%, and 88.9%, respectively, to predict mortality. CONCLUSION The best PaO2 within 24 h after birth predicted mortality following ECMO initiation. This should be shared to families and caregivers to optimize the best interests of the infants with CDH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the optimal timing of neonates with prenatally diagnosed congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). METHODS Data from a retrospective cohort study conducted by the Japanese CDH Study Group between 2011 and 2018 were divided into two groups according to delivery timing: 36-37 and 38-41 weeks of gestation (wg). Death before 90 days as the primary outcome and the duration of hospitalization, oxygen therapy and tube feeding at discharge as the secondary outcomes were analyzed with generalized linear model applying inverse probability of treatment weighting method. We also performed layered analysis according to stomach position. RESULT Among 493 neonates with prenatally diagnosed, isolated and left CDH, 237 were born at 38-41wg. The duration of hospitalization was significantly shorter in those born at 38-41wg, especially among those with stomach malposition, and the other outcomes showed no difference. CONCLUSIONS Delivery at 38-41wg could be beneficial for those with high grade stomach position.

Prenatal stomach position and volume in relation to postnatal outcomes in left-sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia. Prenat Diagn 2021; 42:338-347. [PMID: 34292626 PMCID: PMC9290604 DOI: 10.1002/pd.6019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2021] [Revised: 07/07/2021] [Accepted: 07/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/04/2022]
Abstract
Objective To examine the association between prenatal stomach position (SP) grade and stomach volume (SV) and the need for pulmonary hypertension (PH) treatment after birth in prenatally diagnosed left‐sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), live born >34 weeks. Methods In retrospect, SP grade and SV were determined in fetuses with isolated left‐sided CDH from 19 weeks gestational age (GA) onwards at three different time periods (≤24 weeks' GA: US1, 24–30 weeks' GA: US2; ≥30 weeks' GA: US3). Primary outcome was need for treatment of PH after birth. Secondary analyses included the predictive value of SP and SV for other respiratory outcomes and postnatal defect size. Results A total of 101 fetuses were included. SP grade was significantly associated with need for treatment of PH (US1, US2, and US3: p < 0.02). Also, prenatal SP grade was positively associated with defect size and development of chronic lung disease (CLD) in survivors. No association was found between SV and respiratory morbidities or postnatal defect size. Conclusion SP grade in left‐sided CDH fetuses is associated with an increased need for PH treatment, a larger postnatal defect size and CLD in survivors. We consider SP determination a valuable contribution to the prenatal assessment of left‐sided CDH.
What is already known about this topic?
Prenatal stomach position (SP) grade has been proposed as a predictive ultrasound parameter for postnatal survival, patch repair, need for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and need for prolonged respiratory support in left‐sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH).
What does this study add?
In children with left‐sided CDH, prenatal SP grade is associated with an increase in need for treatment of pulmonary hypertension and development of chronic lung disease, with the greatest increase in SP Grade 2 and 4. A higher prenatal SP grade is associated with a larger postnatal defect size. In the majority of cases SP grade does not vary throughout gestation.

Prenatal stomach position predicts gastrointestinal morbidity at 2 years in fetuses with left-sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia. ULTRASOUND IN OBSTETRICS & GYNECOLOGY : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY OF ULTRASOUND IN OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY 2021; 57:959-967.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The long-term morbidity associated with isolated left-sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) has been described previously. However, antenatal criteria impacting gastrointestinal morbidity (GIM) are not yet defined. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of fetal stomach position on the risk of GIM at 2 years of age in children with left-sided CDH. METHODS This was a retrospective, observational multicenter cohort study of data obtained from January 2010 to January 2014, that included patients whose fetus had isolated left-sided CDH, with or without fetal endoscopic tracheal occlusion (FETO). Prenatal maternal, fetal and pediatric data were collected. Fetal stomach position was evaluated a posteriori by two observers, using ultrasound images at the level of the four-chamber view of the heart that had been obtained to calculate the observed-to-expected lung-area-to-head-circumference ratio (O/E-LHR). Fetal stomach position was graded as follows: Grade 1, stomach not visualized; Grade 2, stomach visualized anteriorly, next to the apex of the heart, with no structure in between the stomach and the sternum; Grade 3, stomach visualized alongside the left ventricle of the heart, and abdominal structures anteriorly; or Grade 4, as Grade 3 but with stomach posterior to the level of the atrioventricular heart valves. The primary outcome was GIM at 2 years of age, assessed in a composite manner, including the occurrence of gastroesophageal reflux disease, need for gastrostomy, duration of parenteral and enteral nutrition and persistence of oral aversion. Regression analysis was performed in order to investigate the effect of O/E-LHR, stomach position and FETO on various GIM outcome variables. RESULTS Forty-seven patients with fetal left-sided CDH were included in the analysis. Thirteen (27.7%) infants did not meet the criterion of exclusive oral feeding at 2 years of age. Fetal stomach position grade was associated significantly and independently with the duration of parenteral nutrition (odds ratio (OR), 19.86; P = 0.031) and persistence of oral aversion at 2 years (OR, 3.40; P = 0.006). On multivariate analysis, O/E-LHR was predictive of the need for prosthetic patch repair, but not for GIM. FETO did not seem to affect the risk of GIM at 2 years. CONCLUSION In isolated left-sided CDH, fetal stomach position is the only factor that is predictive of GIM at 2 years of age. © 2020 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Interrater agreement for sonographic stomach position classification in fetal diaphragmatic hernia across the North American Fetal Therapy Network. Prenat Diagn 2021; 42:348-356.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate inter-rater agreement for sonographic classification of stomach position (as a surrogate for liver herniation) in fetal left congenital diaphragmatic hernia (LCDH) among: (i) fetal medicine specialists from the North American Fetal Therapy Network (NAFTNet) centers within and without the fetal endoscopic tracheal occlusion (FETO) consortium and in comparison to an expert external reviewer (ER1); and (iii) among two expert ERs (ER1 and ER2). METHODS Forty-eight physicians from 26 NAFTNet centers and 2 ERs were asked to assess 13 sonographic clips of isolated LCDH and classify stomach position as "intra-abdominal," "anterior left chest," "mid to posterior left chest," or "retro-cardiac" based on the classification published by Basta et al.8 Interrater agreement was assessed by determining proportion of stomach position ratings concordant amongst NAFTNet participants and ER1. Agreement for stomach position between ERs was calculated using kappa statistics. RESULTS Agreement for stomach position was 69% (39%-85%; n = 19) and 54% (23%-92%; n = 29) among FETO and non-FETO NAFTNet participants, respectively, when compared to ER1. Most disagreement in stomach position was related to a discrepancy of one position. ERs were in agreement for stomach position in 5 of 13 cases (38.5%) and inter-rater agreement was highest for "anterior" stomach position. CONCLUSION Interrater agreement for stomach position assessment in CDH was poor across NAFTNet and indeed amongst expert reviewers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the appropriate initial ventilatory mode for neonatal congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) by comparing patient prognosis following conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) versus high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFO). STUDY DESIGN This multicenter retrospective cohort study was performed at 15 participating hospitals in Japan between 2011 and 2016. The 328 eligible CDH infants were classified into CMV (n = 78) and HFO groups (n = 250) to compare mortality and incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Propensity score matching was applied to reduce confounding by indication. RESULT While crude mortality was significantly higher in the HFO than the CMV group, adjusted odds ratio (OR) did not show significant difference in mortality between groups (OR of HFO group: 0.98, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.57-1.67). Adjusted OR of BPD incidence showed no significant difference between groups (OR of HFO group: 1.66, 95%CI: 0.50-5.49). CONCLUSION Initial ventilatory mode in CDH patients, whether CMV or HFO, does not affect prognosis.

[PMID: 33713885 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejogrb.2021.02.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2020] [Revised: 02/16/2021] [Accepted: 02/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES (1) To investigate the reproducibility of total fetal lung volume (TFLV) measurements using a free 3D modeling software (3DSlicer); (2) To correlate these measurements with lung-to-head ratio (LHR) or TFLV measured using PACS and; (3) To determine the role of 3DSlicer in predicting perinatal outcomes in cases with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) who had fetal tracheal occlusion (FETO). METHODS Retrospective cohort study between 2012 and 2017 at Texas Children's Hospital (2011-2017), including all patients who underwent FETO for CDH. LHR was measured by ultrasound and TFLV was measured by MRI at the time of referral and 6 weeks after FETO using 3DSlicer and PACS. We evaluated intra- and inter-rater reliability of TFLV measurement using 3DSlicer, infant survival to 1 year, need for ECMO and pulmonary hypertension. RESULTS The intra- and inter-rater reliability of TFLV measured with 3DSlicer was excellent before and after FETO (Intra-class correlation coefficient: 0.98-0.99 and 0.94-0.99, respectively). There was a good correlation between TFLV measured with PACS and with 3DSlicer before and after FETO (r = 0.78 and r = 0.99, respectively). Similarly, there was a good correlation between TFLV measurements using PACS or 3DSlicer and LHR after FETO (r = 0.86 and r = 0.88, respectively). Infants who survived to 1 year had a significantly higher TFLV evaluated with 3DSlicer before FETO compared to non-surviving infants (OR = 1.16[1.1-1.3], p = 0.03) as well as a significantly higher TFLV evaluated by 3DSlicer after FETO (OR = 1.2[1-1.4], p = 0.04). CONCLUSION Lung volume measurements using free 3DSlicer in infants with severe CDH who underwent FETO are reproducible and reliable, and have comparable predictive capability for survival as those measured using conventional software.

Abstract
PURPOSE The optimal timing of surgery for congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is controversial. We aimed to validate our protocol for the timing of CDH repair using the quantified patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) flow pattern. METHODS This retrospective comparative study analyzed patients with a prenatal diagnosis of isolated CDH between 2007 and 2020. We defined the "LR ratio" as the percentage of velocity-time integral (VTI) of the left-to-right flow of PDA against overall VTI on echocardiography. Since 2010, we followed the decision criterion of performing surgery when LR ratio of > 50% has been achieved in the patients (protocol group). The protocol group (2010-2020) was compared with the historical control group (2007-2009). RESULTS The average age at surgery was 104.1 ± 175.9 and 37.3 ± 30.6 h in the control and protocol groups, respectively (p = 0.11). Survival rate (88.9% vs. 95.0%, p = 0.53) and the rate of worsening of pulmonary hypertension within 24 h after surgery (22.2% vs. 10.0%, p = 0.57) were not different between the groups. The protocol group had a significantly shorter duration of tracheal intubation (26.9 ± 21.1 vs. 13.3 ± 9.5 days, p = 0.03). CONCLUSION Our decision criterion might have the advantage of facilitating early and safe surgery for patients with CDH.

Abstract
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is characterized by a defect in the muscle dividing the thoracic and abdominal cavities. This leads to herniation of the abdominal organs into the thorax and a disturbance of lung development. Two-thirds of cases are identified by prenatal ultrasound in the second trimester, which should prompt referral to a tertiary center for prognosis assessment and counseling by a multidisciplinary team familiar with this condition. In this review, we summarize evidence on prenatal diagnosis and postnatal management of CDH. There is a focus on information that should be provided to expecting parents during prenatal counseling.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Prenatal work-up for congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is important for risk stratification, standardization, counseling, and optimal therapeutic choice. To determine current practice patterns regarding prenatal CDH work-up, including prenatal ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) use, and to identify areas for standardization of such evaluation between fetal centers. METHODS A survey regarding prenatal CDH work-up was sent to each member center of the North American Fetal Therapy Network (NAFTNet) (n = 36). RESULTS All responded. Sonographic measurement of lung-to-head ratio (LHR) was determined by all, 89% (32/36) of which routinely calculate observed-to-expected LHR. The method for measuring LHR varied: 58% (21/36) used a "trace" method, 25% (9/36) used "longest axis," and 17% (6/36) used an "antero-posterior" method. Fetal MRI was routinely used in 78% (28/36) of centers, but there was significant variability in fetal lung volume measurement. Whereas all generated a total fetal lung volume, the planes, methodology and references values varied significantly. All evaluated liver position, 71% (20/28) evaluated stomach position and 54% (15/28) quantified the degree of liver herniation. More consistency in workup was seen between centers offering fetal intervention. CONCLUSION Prenatal CDH work-up and management differs considerably among North American fetal diagnostic centers, highlighting a need for its standardization.

Abstract
PURPOSE To date, there is no compelling evidence of the optimal timing of surgery for congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). This study aimed to establish the optimal timing of surgery in neonates with isolated left-sided CDH. METHODS This multicenter cohort study enrolled 276 patients with isolated left-sided CDH at 15 institutions. Based on the timing of surgery, the patients were classified into four groups [< 24 h (G1), 24-47 h (G2), 48-71 h (G3), and ≥ 72 h (G4)]. The clinical outcomes were compared among the groups using a logistic regression model, after adjusting for potential confounders, such as disease severity. RESULTS Multivariate analyses showed that G2 also had a lower mortality rate than the other groups. In mild and severe cases, there were no significant differences in mortality across the four groups. In moderate cases, G2 resulted in significantly increased survival rates, compared with G1. CONCLUSION The study results suggest that surgery within 24 h of birth is not recommended for patients with moderate severity CDH, that there is no benefit in the delay of surgery for more than 72 h in mild severity CDH patients, and that there is no definite optimal time to perform surgery in severe cases of CDH.

Abstract
AIM To present the feasibility, safety and outcomes of fetoscopic endoluminal tracheal occlusion (FETO) for the treatment of severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). METHODS This was a single-arm clinical trial of FETO for isolated left-sided CDH with liver herniation and Kitano Grade 3 stomach position (>50% stomach herniation into the right chest). FETO was performed at 27-29 weeks of gestation for cases with observed/expected lung to head ratio (o/e LHR) <25% and at 30-31 weeks for cases with o/e LHR ≥25%. RESULTS Eleven cases were enrolled between March 2014 and March 2016, and balloon insertion was successful in all cases. The median o/e LHR at entry was 27% (range, 20-33%). The median gestational age at FETO was 30.9 (range, 27.1-31.7) weeks. There were no severe maternal adverse events. One fetus died unexpectedly at 33 weeks of gestation due to cord strangulation by the detached amniotic membrane. There were 3 cases (27%) of preterm premature rupture of membranes. In all 10 cases, balloon removal at 34-35 weeks of gestation was successful. The median gestational age at delivery was 36.5 (range, 34.2-38.3) weeks. The median duration of occlusion and the median interval between balloon insertion and delivery were 26 days (range: 17-49 days) and 43 days (range, 21-66 days), respectively. Both the survival rate at 90 days of age and the rate of survival to discharge were 45% (5/11). CONCLUSION The FETO is feasible without maternal morbidity in Japan and could be offered to women whose fetuses show severe isolated left-sided CDH to accelerate fetal lung growth.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe and analyze the prognosis of children during the first year of life with a diagnosis of congenital diaphragmatic hernia admitted between the years 2005 and 2015 in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. METHOD In a retrospective cohort, 129 children with a diagnosis of congenital diaphragmatic hernia were studied. The prognostic factors were analyzed, whereupon prenatal, delivery, and postnatal exposure variables were associated with death during the first year of life. The odds ratio and the confidence interval (95% CI) were calculated for all the studied variables, using the chi-squared test and Student's t-test. RESULTS The study included 129 children hospitalized from January of 2005 to December of 2015. Seventy-nine (61%) patients died, 50 survived, and 33 had other associated malformations. Among the prognostic factors, the following were significant and increased the chance of death: polyhydramnios (p=0.001), gestational age of the earliest diagnosis (p=0.004), associated congenital abnormalities (OR: 3.013, p=0.022), pO2 of the first gasometry (p=0.000), pCO2 of the first gasometry (p=0.000), presence of pulmonary hypoplasia (OR: 3.074, p=0.000), use of preoperative vasoactive drugs (OR: 2.881, p=0.000), and use of nitric oxide (OR: 1.739, p=0.000). The presence of only intestines in the hernia content was a protective factor (OR: 0.615, p=0.001). CONCLUSION The mortality in the first year of life in patients with congenital diaphragmatic hernia in this study was 61% in the years 2005-2015. Among the prognostic factors that demonstrated a significant effect, pulmonary hypoplasia had the greatest impact.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate our prenatal risk stratification system for risk-adjusted management in fetuses with isolated congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). METHODS Ninety-four infants prenatally diagnosed with isolated CDH treated between 1998 and 2017 at our institution were included in this retrospective single-center cohort study. RESULTS The patients were prenatally classified into four risk groups: Group A (n = 54), which consisted of infants with neither liver-up nor a contralateral lung-to-thorax transverse area (L/T) ratio <0.08. The infants in group A were divided into two subgroups: Group A-1 (n = 24) consisted of mild conditions; and Group A-2 (n = 30) consisted of severe conditions; Group B (n = 23), which consisted of infants with either liver-up or L/T ratio <0.08; and Group C (n = 17), which consisted of infants with both liver-up and L/T ratio <0.08. The rates of survival to discharge in Groups A-1, A-2, B, and C were 100.0%, 100.0%, 87.0%, and 58.8%, respectively. The rates of intact discharge were 91.7%, 90.0%, 52.1%, and 23.5%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Our prenatal risk stratification system demonstrated a significant difference in the severity of postnatal status and clinical outcomes between the groups.

Abstract
Fetal intervention has progressed in the past two decades from experimental proof-of-concept to practice-adopted, life saving interventions in human fetuses with congenital anomalies. This progress is informed by advances in innovative research, prenatal diagnosis, and fetal surgical techniques. Invasive open hysterotomy, associated with notable maternal-fetal risks, is steadily replaced by less invasive fetoscopic alternatives. A better understanding of the natural history and pathophysiology of congenital diseases has advanced the prenatal regenerative paradigm. By altering the natural course of disease through regrowth or redevelopment of malformed fetal organs, prenatal regenerative medicine has transformed maternal-fetal care. This review discusses the uses of regenerative medicine in the prenatal diagnosis and management of three congenital diseases: congenital diaphragmatic hernia, lower urinary tract obstruction, and spina bifida.

Abstract
Antenatal ultrasound screening identifies more than 60% of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) cases and provides the opportunity for in utero referral to a tertiary care center for expert assessment and perinatal management. Prenatal assessment of fetuses with CDH has tremendously improved over the past ten years. The outcome may be predicted prenatally by medical imaging and advanced genetic testing. The combination of lung size and liver position determination by ultrasound measurements and MRI are widely accepted methods to stratify fetuses into groups that correlate not only with neonatal mortality but also with morbidity. Notwithstanding this, prediction of persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn still needs to be improved.

Abstract
Objectives: To compare ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the assessment of mediastinal shift angles (MSAs) in fetuses affected by isolated left congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). The use of MRI-MSA and US-MSA as prognostic factor for postnatal survival in fetal left CDH was also explored.Methods: This was an observational study of 29 fetuses with prenatally diagnosed isolated left CDH, assessed with both US and MRI examinations between January 2015 and December 2018. The US-MSA measurements performed within 2 weeks from the MRI assessment were considered for the analysis. The primary outcome was the postnatal survival rate.Results: No significant difference between US and MRI MSAs was detected (p = .419). Among the 29 cases, there were 21 alive infants, for an overall postnatal survival rate of 72.41%. After stratifying for postnatal survival, the best cutoffs with the highest discriminatory power in terms of sensibility and specificity were 42.1° for the US-MSA and 39.1° for the MRI-MSA. The performance of MRI-MSA in predicting postnatal survival was close to that of US-MSA in terms of sensitivity (62.5 versus 50.0%), specificity (80.9 versus 90.5%), positive predictive value (55.6 versus 66.7%), negative predictive value (85.0 versus 82.6%) and accuracy (75.9 versus 79.3%). There was no statistically significant difference between the two modalities (p > .05 for all).Conclusions: MRI and US can be interchangeably used for the assessment of MSA in prenatally diagnosed isolated left CDH. Moreover, MSA measured by both US and MRI was confirmed to be correlated with perinatal outcome in terms of survival.

A multifactorial severity score for left congenital diaphragmatic hernia in a high-risk population using fetal magnetic resonance imaging. Pediatr Radiol 2019; 49:1718-1725.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adverse outcomes for infants born with left congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) have been correlated with fetal imaging findings. OBJECTIVE We sought to corroborate these correlations in a high-risk cohort and describe a predictive mortality algorithm combining multiple imaging biomarkers for use in prenatal counseling. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed fetal MRI examinations at our institution from 2004 to 2016 demonstrating left-side CDH. MRI findings, hospital course and outcomes were recorded and analyzed using bivariate and multivariable analysis. We generated a receiver operating curve (ROC) to determine a cut-off relation for mortality. Finally, we created a predictive mortality calculator. RESULTS Of 41 fetuses included in this high-risk cohort, 41% survived. Per bivariate analysis, observed-to-expected total fetal lung volume (P=0.007), intrathoracic position of the stomach (P=0.049), and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) requirement (P<0.001) were significantly associated with infant mortality. Youden J statistic optimized the ROC for mortality at 24% observed-to-expected total fetal lung volume (sensitivity 64%, specificity 82%, area under the curve 0.72). On multivariable analysis, observed-to-expected total fetal lung volume ± 24% was predictive of mortality (adjusted odds ratio, 95% confidence interval: 0.09 [0.02, 0.55]; P=0.008). We derived a novel mortality prediction calculator from this analysis. CONCLUSION In this high-risk cohort, decreased observed-to-expected total fetal lung volume and stomach herniation were significantly associated with mortality. The novel predictive mortality calculator utilizes information from fetal MR imaging and provides prognostic information for health care providers. Creation of similar predictive tools by other institutions, using their distinct populations, might prove useful in family counseling, especially where there are discordant imaging findings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reproducibility of stomach position grading in congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) as proposed by Cordier et al and Basta et al after standardization of the methods at our center. METHODS We collected sonographic images from 23 fetuses with left-sided CDH at our center from 2010 to 2018. Nine operators (one maternal fetal medicine expert and eight sonographers) reviewed the selected images and graded the stomach position according to the methods of Cordier et al and Basta et al. We assessed the interoperator agreement with Fleiss's kappa statistics. RESULTS Overall agreement amongst all operators was moderate for both methods proposed by Cordier et al (k = 0.60, SE 0.07, 95% CI 0.47-0.73, P < .0001) and Basta et al (k = 0.60, SE 0.06, 95% CI 0.47-0.73, P < .0001). Interoperator agreement was moderate for grade 3 with the method by Cordier et al (k = 0.45, SE 0.09, 95% CI 0.27-0.64, P < .0001) and fair for grade 4 with the method by Basta et al (k = 0.33, SE 0.08, 95% CI 0.18-0.49 P < .0001). CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates a fair to moderate interoperator agreement of the stomach position grading methods proposed in the literature after standardization of the methods at our center. Further multicenter studies are needed to confirm our results.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the value and accuracy of gestational age at diagnosis in predicting postnatal outcomes of prenatally diagnosed congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). STUDY DESIGN The medical records of 158 prenatally diagnosed neonates with CDH from 2008 to 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Data were analyzed using parametric and nonparametric tests, appropriately. RESULTS Gestational age at diagnosis predicted postnatal survival independently. Survival rate at discharge increased when gestational age at diagnosis increased (p < .001). Area under the receiver operator curve for survival for gestational age at diagnosis was 0.74, observed-to-expected lung to head ratio 0.74, and liver herniation 0.76. Patients diagnosed with CDH before 25 gestational weeks had a larger size of the diaphragmatic defect, more need for patch repair, longer duration of mechanical ventilation and hospital stay than those after 25 gestational weeks. CONCLUSIONS Gestational age at diagnosis is an independent predictor of CDH prognosis. It has a similar ability to predict survival compared to observed-to-expected lung to head ratio and liver herniation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To perform a comprehensive assessment of postnatal gastrointestinal (GI) morbidity and determine the prenatal imaging features and postnatal factors associated with its development in patients with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective review was conducted of all infants evaluated for CDH at a quaternary fetal center from February 2004 to May 2017. Prenatal imaging features and postnatal variables were analyzed. GI morbidity was the primary outcome. The Mann-Whitney U test, the Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunnett's T3 post hoc analysis and logistic regression, and the χ2 test were performed when appropriate. RESULTS We evaluated 256 infants; 191 (75%) underwent CDH repair and had at least 6 months of follow-up. Of this cohort, 60% had gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), 13% had gastroparesis, 32% received a gastrostomy tube (G-tube), and 17% needed a fundoplication. Large defect, patch repair, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), and prolonged use of mechanical ventilation were significantly associated with having GERD, gastroparesis, G-tube placement, and fundoplication (p < 0.05). Fetuses with stomach grades 3 and 4 were most likely to have GERD, a G-tube, and a long-term need for supplemental nutrition than fetuses with stomach grades 1 and 2 (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Survivors of CDH with large defects, prolonged use of mechanical ventilation, or that have received ECMO may be at an increased risk for having GERD, gastroparesis, and major GI surgery. Marked stomach displacement on prenatal imaging is significantly associated with GI morbidity in left-sided CDH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the reproducibility of a standardized method to assess the ultrasound liver-to-thoracic area ratio in fetuses with congenital diaphragmatic hernia. METHODS We selected 24 images of 9 fetuses diagnosed with left-sided at our institution between January 2010 and December 2017. Eight operators (1 maternal-fetal medicine specialist and 7 sonographers) reviewed the selected images and assessed the ultrasound liver-to-thoracic area ratio according to a standardized protocol. We evaluated the correlation between operators using the intraclass correlation coefficient and compared agreement between the sonographers and a physician with experience in measuring the ultrasound liver-to-thoracic area ratio using a Bland-Altman analysis. RESULTS Good intraoperator reproducibility was observed for the standardized ultrasound liver-to-thoracic area ratio (intraclass correlation coefficient, 0.78). Good agreement among sonographers and the physician was also observed for the standardized measurements (bias, 0.01; precision, 0.03; limits of agreement, -0.05 to + 0.07). CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated that good intraoperator and interoperator reproducibility of ultrasound liver-to-thoracic area ratio assessment is feasible after standardizing the method in our center.

Abstract
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia is characterized by failed closure of the diaphragm, thereby allowing abdominal viscera to herniate into the thoracic cavity and subsequently interfering with normal lung development. At birth, pulmonary hypoplasia leads to respiratory insufficiency and persistent pulmonary hypertension (PHT), that is lethal in up to 32% of patients. In isolated cases, the outcome may be predicted prenatally by medical imaging and advanced genetic testing. In those fetuses with a predicted poor outcome, fetoscopic endoluminal tracheal occlusion may be offered. This procedure is currently being evaluated in a global randomized clinical trial (www.TOTALtrial.eu). We are currently investigating alternative strategies including transplacental sildenafil administration to reduce the occurrence of persistent PHT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a condition with a wide range of severity. Prenatal diagnosis is essential to optimize postnatal management, especially for severe cases. The lung to head ratio (LHR) and liver herniation estimated by prenatal ultrasound has been used as prenatal predictors in CDH. However, reliability of these factors remains to be proven and prediction of outcome from prenatal imaging is still challenging. We propose our new stratification system using lung to liver signal intensity ratio (LLSIR) in fetal MRI, which has been shown to be related to pulmonary maturation. METHODS Retrospective chart review was conducted on 25 infants with CDH treated from 2009 through 2016 in our hospital. We stratified patients according to fetal T2-weighted MRI as Grade I, detectable ipsilateral lung at the apex; Grade II, undetectable ipsilateral lung at the apex and contralateral LLSR ≥2.0; Grade III, undetectable ipsilateral lung at the apex and contralateral LLSR <2.0. To evaluate this stratification system, we analyzed survival, severity [inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) usage with or without extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)], and requirement of patch closure. RESULTS All 15 patients survived in Grade I, while 2 out of 6 died in Grade II, and 3 out of 4 died in Grade III (P=0.003). Four were severe in Grade I, and all in Grade II and III who survived (P=0.007). One needed patch in Grade I, and all in Grade II and III (OR: 414,238,332; 95% CI, 0-∞). Liver herniation was noted in five patients, and significantly associated with survival (P=0.04), however, neither with severity (P=1.00) nor with the requirement of patch closure (P=0.52). CONCLUSIONS The risk stratification algorithm using contralateral LLSIR in fetal MRI could be useful and more reliable than liver herniation to predict survival, severity, and need of patch closure. Further investigation is warranted.

Abstract
Congenital rachischisis and brachioesophagus with secondary intrathoracic stomach, which is described as "serpentine-like syndrome", is a very rare condition. We report the prenatal findings of serpentine-like syndrome in a fetus at 18 weeks of gestation. The stomach was entirely elevated into the thoracic area, but the liver retained its normal position. Our initial diagnosis was isolated left congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). At 20 weeks of gestation, the pregnancy was terminated, and a male newborn weighing 338 g was vaginally delivered. The autopsy findings revealed an extremely short esophagus, and the stomach was located in the posterior mediastinum as a result of congenital esophagus hiatal hernia. A severe case of rachischisis was identified from the cervical to thoracic vertebrae. The prognosis of congenital intrathoracic stomach associated with serpentine-like syndrome is extremely poor compared to the prognosis of isolated CDH. It is difficult to make a definite diagnosis by ultrasound alone; however, atypical findings, such as the presence of the entire intrathoracic stomach despite the normally located liver, may warrant further exploration. Obstetricians and neonatal clinicians presented with similar cases should be alerted to the significance of these prenatal findings and the differences in outcomes to ensure appropriate counseling of parents.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to examine laterality as a predictor of outcomes among fetuses with prenatally diagnosed congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study of pregnancies with CDH evaluated at our center from 2008 to 2016 compared cases with right-sided CDH (RCDH) versus left-sided CDH (LCDH). The primary outcome was survival to discharge. Secondary outcomes included ultrasound predictors of poor prognosis (liver herniation, stomach herniation, lung area-to-head circumference ratio [LHR]), concurrent anomalies, hydrops, stillbirth, preterm birth, mode of delivery, small for gestational age, use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, and length of stay. Terminations and stillbirths were excluded from analyses of neonatal outcomes. RESULTS In this study, 157 (83%) LCDH and 32 (17%) RCDH cases were identified. Survival to discharge was similar (64 vs. 66.4%, p = 0.49) with regard to laterality. RCDH had higher rates of liver herniation (90.6 vs. 72%, p = 0.03), hydrops fetalis (15.6 vs. 1.3%, p < 0.01), and lower LHR (0.87 vs. 0.99, p = 0.04). LCDH had higher rates of stomach herniation (69.4 vs. 12.5%, p < 0.01). Rates of other outcomes were similar in univariate analyses. Adjusting for microarray abnormalities, the odds for survival to discharge for RCDH compared with LCDH was 0.93 (0.38-2.30, p = 0.88). CONCLUSION Compared with LCDH, fetuses with RCDH had higher rates of adverse ultrasound predictors, but equivalent survival.

Abstract
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia is a rare disease associated with high mortality and morbidity. Antenatal ultrasound screening identifies more than 70% of cases, providing the opportunity for in utero referral to a tertiary care center for expert assessment and perinatal management. Additional genetic and morphologic assessment may be used to rule out associated anomalies. In isolated cases, the outcome may be predicted prenatally by medical imaging. The combination of lung size and liver herniation is a widely accepted method to stratify fetuses into groups with an increasing degree of pulmonary hypoplasia and corresponding mortality rates. Ultrasound measurement of the observed to expected lung-to-head ratio (o/e LHR) is most widely used. The o/e LHR is an independent predictor of survival and short-term morbidity. Finally, evaluation of stomach position has recently been introduced as an indirect method to estimate severity of the disease in left-sided defects, as it has been shown to correlate with the proportion of intrathoracic liver. Herein, we propose a protocol for the standardized ultrasound assessment of fetuses with isolated CDH and individualized prediction of neonatal outcome.

Abstract
We aimed to investigate whether the lung-to-thorax transverse area ratio (LTR) immediately before birth is of diagnostic value for the prediction of postnatal short-term outcomes in cases of isolated left-sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). We retrospectively reviewed the cases of fetal isolated left-sided CDH managed at our institution between April 2008 and July 2016. We divided the patients into two groups based on LTR immediately before birth, using a cut-off value of 0.08. We compared the proportions of subjects within the two groups who survived until discharge using Fisher's exact test. Further, using Spearman's rank correlation, we assessed whether LTR was correlated with length of stay, duration of mechanical ventilation, and supplemental oxygen. Twenty-nine subjects were included (five with LTR < 0.08, and 24 with LTR ≥ 0.08). The proportion of subjects surviving until discharge was 40% (2/5) for patients with LTR < 0.08, as compared with 96% (23/24) for those with LTR ≥ 0.08. LTR measured immediately before birth was negatively correlated with the postnatal length of stay (Spearman's rank correlation coefficient, rs = -0.486), and the duration of supplemental oxygen (rs = -0.537). Further, the duration of mechanical ventilation was longer in patients with a lower LTR value. LTR immediately before birth is useful for the prediction of postnatal short-term outcomes in fetuses with isolated left-sided CDH. In particular, patients with prenatal LTR value less than 0.08 are at increased risk of postnatal death.

Abstract
The initial outcome in infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia is mainly related to the associated lung hypoplasia. However, these patients frequently present with additional gastrointestinal pathology that also influences their quality of life and final prognosis. Congenital gastrointestinal anomalies are often observed and the displacement of the liver, the stomach and/or the intestines into the thorax may cause distortion of the vascular axis of these organs, increasing the risk of congestion and/or ischemia. Some of these gastrointestinal complications are already visible at imaging studies performed in utero and/or in newborns.This pictorial essay describes the imaging findings of the most frequently detected gastrointestinal complications in fetuses and infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia, focusing on prenatal exams.

Abstract
PURPOSE We investigated the developmental changes in the unaffected contralateral lungs of patients with isolated left-sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) using signal intensity ratios on prenatal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and determined whether these changes correlated with clinical outcomes. METHODS We performed 47 fetal MRI screens on 30 patients with isolated left-sided CDH. A cohort of 88 fetuses was selected as the control. We calculated the lung-to-liver signal intensity ratio (LLSIR) using region of interest analysis and compared LLSIR between the groups and between those in the CDH group with good and poor prognoses. RESULTS In the control group, LLSIR increased as pregnancy progressed [regression line = 2.232 + 0.135 × (GW-23), r = 0.669]. In the CDH group, especially in the poor prognosis group, LLSIR did not significantly increase as pregnancy progressed [regression line for good prognosis = 1.827 + 0.092 × (gestational week-23), r = 0.733; regression line for poor prognosis = 1.731 + 0.025 × (gestational week-23), r = 0.634]. CONCLUSION Fetal LLSIR on T2-weighted MRI is an accurate marker of fetal lung maturity that correlates with postnatal survival and can potentially be used as a prognostic parameter in CDH management.

Abstract
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia is surgically correctable, yet the poor lung development determines mortality and morbidity. In isolated cases the outcome may be predicted prenatally by medical imaging. Cases with a poor prognosis could be treated before birth. However, prenatal modulation of lung development remains experimental. Fetoscopic endoluminal tracheal occlusion triggers lung growth and is currently being evaluated in a global clinical trial. Prenatal transplacental sildenafil administration may in due course be a therapeutic approach, reducing the occurrence of persistent pulmonary hypertension, either alone or in combination with fetal surgery.
