Congenital diaphragmatic hernia is an uncommon disease with high morbidity and mortality rates. The coexistence of it with Down syndrome has been defined and a few case reports have been published in the literature. Congenital diaphragmatic hernia symptoms have similarities with those of gastrointestinal and respiratory system diseases causing a delay in diagnosis. In our case report, a patient who have had frequent gastrointestinal complaints and lower respiratory tract infections from birth has been diagnosed with Morgagni hernia at the age of eleven months. We aimed to emphasize on the clinical findings of congenital diaphragmatic hernia in patients especially with chromosomal anomalies who suffer from frequent respiratory tract infections via this case report.
