Question

How should neonatal cardio-pulmonary abnormalities, including pulmonary hypoplasia or absence of the lung, ectopia cordis, and diaphragmatic hernia, be treated?

Answer

For neonatal cardio-pulmonary abnormalities, it is recommended to undergo cardiac repair surgery, as medication treatment is limited. In addition to symptomatic treatment for common neonatal diseases, parents should consult with specialist physicians and maintain good communication with the medical team. In terms of care, attention should be paid to the neonate’s diet, maintaining a light diet, and encouraging appropriate outdoor exercise. At the same time, choosing a reputable hospital for treatment can help achieve better treatment outcomes.
