    (2010) Zavala, Alejandro; Campos, Jose-Manuel; Riutort, Cecilia; Skorin, Ilona; Godoy, Loreto; Faunes, Miriam; Kattan, Javier
    Following surgical repair of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), chylothorax can be present in 7-28% of the cases. It has been associated with prenatal diagnosis, the use of ECMO and prosthetic patches during reparatory surgery. The objective is to present a neonatal unit experience in handling this complication and the search for predictive factors for its appearance in our patients.
