Current concepts on the pathogenesis and etiology of congenital diaphragmatic hernia

Highlights • CDH is characterized by the incomplete formation of the diaphragm in utero. • There are teratogenic, Vit A-deficient, and genetically engineered rodent models of CDH. • The diaphragm arises from the pleuroperitoneal fold (PPF). • Abnormal PPF formation during gestational weeks 3–5 leads...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • CDH is characterized by the incomplete formation of the diaphragm in utero. • There are teratogenic, Vit A-deficient, and genetically engineered rodent models of CDH. • The diaphragm arises from the pleuroperitoneal fold (PPF). • Abnormal PPF formation during gestational weeks 3–5 leads to the defect. • Retinoid signaling and associated genes have been implicated in the etiology of CDH.
