Three cases of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CHD) are presented with special emphasis on a neonate with an unusual combination of abnormalities. It was noted that in all three the hernias were of the Bochdaleck's type. CDH may not always be a single isolated failure of closure of the pleural peritoneal hiatus but a more complex multi organ anomaly.
