Abstract

Introduction:

Prenatal intervention with fetoscopic endoluminal tracheal occlusion (FETO) using a balloon can stimulate lung growth and improve neonatal survival for moderate and severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). Quantitative parameters measured on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can guide the treatment of CDH and evaluate changes after FETO treatment.

Case presentation:

We reported on five cases of isolated left congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) in fetuses who underwent FETO surgery. We conducted a comparison of the MRI images before and after FETO treatment and analyzed the correlation between the observed changes and the clinical outcomes of the neonates after delivery.

Conclusion:

MRI can precisely provide the anatomical details of CDH and quantitatively analyze changes in fetal lung volume before and after FETO surgery.
