Bilateral congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a rare birth defect associated with poor prognosis associated with pulmonary hypoplasia, pulmonary hypertension, and other congenital anomalies. We describe a female neonate with bilateral CDH who was successfully managed surgically. A brief review of literature is also described.
