Abstract: The present article is a systematic literature review with consultation of PubMed and LILACS databases. 10 articles were selected that were in accordance with the proposal. Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is characterized by the absence or failure of the diaphragm to close after 10 weeks of gestational age, an age at which it should have already completed its formation process without defects. Its etiology is still poorly elucidated, but it is presumed to be multifactorial. This communication between cavities allows abdominal organs to move into the thorax, putting pressure on the lungs and preventing their proper development. The main consequences of CDH are variable degrees of pulmonary hypoplasia and hypertension, gastro- oesophageal reflux and intestinal obstruction, leading to high morbidity and mortality. For early diagnosis and effective management of cases, it is essential to identify and study the diagnostic means, such as ultrasound and Magnetic Resonance Imaging; the main prenatal (Fetal Endoscopic Tracheal Occlusion or "FETO") and postnatal medical interventions (Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation or "ECMO") and current protocols for oxygenation and pH management after birth.
