CDH International

CDH DH International was created to help families of babies born with Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia by providing support services, promoting research and raising awareness. Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) is a birth defect that occurs when a baby’s diaphragm (a thin sheet of muscle that separates the abdomen from the chest) fails to fully form, allowing abdominal organs to enter the chest cavity and prevent lung growth.
