Abstract: Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a major congenital malformation where abdominal contents herniate into the chest. The usual contents of left-sided CDH are the small and large bowels, the stomach, the spleen, the left lobe of liver, and occasionally, the kidney.

We present a case of intrathoracic testi's occurring in a Bochdalek’s CDH managed at our centre.
