  ABSTRACT: Congenital cupola diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a congenital embryopathy which is defined by the absence of development of all or part of a diaphragmatic cupola. We report a case of posterolateral diaphragmatic hernia called right Bochdalek hernia in a three-day-old newborn hospitalized in the neonatology department of the Center Hospitalier Universitaire Pédiatrique de Bangui (CHUPB) for respiratory discomfort, vomiting and fever. Unsuccessful treatment for neonatal staphylococcal infection diagnosis of diaphragmatic hernia was suggested and confirmed on day 18 of life by computed tomography and intraoperatively.
