CDH affects 1 in approx. 2500 babies. The cause is not yet known. 50% of these babies may not survive and sometimes the remaining 50% have to overcome very difficult medical complications. CDH can occur alone or with other birth defects, and, rarely, it occurs as part of a syndrome. Every case is different; there is no way to predict the outcome of any patient 100%.www.cdhuk.org.uk
