Dissertation in short:

In this two-part thesis we assessed the value of prenatal ultrasound predictors for postnatal outcome and perinatal manegement in foetuses with a congenital anomaly associated with pulmonary hypoplasia and an increased risk of postnatal development of pulmonary hypertension and/or chronic lung disease. We included foetus with a congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM), congenital diafragmatic hernia (CDH) or omphalocele in the research described in this thesis.
