| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to make clear the pathological characteristics of hypoplastic lung in congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
Two groups were made.
Group I was "operation models". Fetal rabbits were operated in utero, and congenital diaphragmatic hernia models were obtained after gestational period.
Group II was "Nitrofen treated group". Maternal rabbits were bred with nitrofen (NIP ; 1000, 2000, 3000 ppm) in their gestational period. (But only "non-CDH models with lung damage were obtained)
RESULTS ; compared with "Control Group"
1) Lung weight : low leveled in, Group I, and normo leveled in Group II.
2) Phospholipids in lung tissue : Severely low leveled in Group II, and low leveled in Group I.
3) Microscopical findings : Only atelectasis was found in Group I, but in Group II atelectasis with emphysema were found and the retardation of the alveolar maturation were remarked.
