We report a case of posterolateral diaphragmatic hernia called right Bochdalek hernia in a three-day-old newborn hospitalized in the neonatology department of the Center Hospitalier Universitaire Pédiatrique de Bangui (CHUPB) for respiratory discomfort, vomiting and fever. Unsuccessful treatment for neonatal staphylococcal infection diagnosis of diaphragmatic hernia was suggested and confirmed on day 18 of life by computed tomography and intraoperatively.展开更多

We report a case in a Central African newborn, born via vaginal delivery, to non-consanguineous parents, admitted at three days of life from a level II health center. The pregnancy was poorly monitored without ultrasound. On admission, the temperature was 40ºC, he was polypneic and tachycardic. There was a congenital defect of the scrotal wall with exteriorization of the left testis and the right testis was normal. The blood count showed pancytopenia and the blood culture isolated amiklin-sensitive Klebseilla pneumonia. The diagnosis of scrotoschisis associated with sepsis was made. A tri-antibiotic therapy associated with general resuscitation followed by testicular transposition and orchidopexy performed on the eleventh day of life did not prevent the fatal outcome three hours after the surgery. This observation confirms the rarity of the malformation and the benefit of an early management.展开更多
