While in utero, Ryan was diagnosed
with severe right-sided congenital
diaphragmatic hernia (CDH).
After
extensive evaluation and family
discussion with Jay Wilson, MD, and
AFCC program director Russell
Jennings, MD, Ryan underwent an
EXIT procedure with trial of ventilation
and placement on ECMO. He then underwent
subsequent repair of his
diaphragm and spent two months at
Children's Hospital Boston recovering
from his surgery. Ryan is now an active
and healthy toddler.
