Abstract
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is rare congenital condition that primarily presents in infants. Bochdalek hernia is the most common of them. Late presentation is unusual, and in most cases is diagnosed in adolescents or early adulthood. Morgagni hernia is the one that usually presents late in adults. The finding of CDH in adults is mostly incidental. We report a case of CDH, posterolateral (Bochdalek type), with left lung hypoplasia, in a 60 year old female, who primarily presented with sudden shortness of breath.
