Rhabdomyomatous dysplasia of lung and congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
A previously unrecognized association of pulmonary rhabdomyomatous dysplasia and congenital posterolateral diaphragmatic hernia is reported. The authors subscribe to the concept of ectopia and postulate an anomalous migration of cervical "diaphragmatic" rhabdomyoblasts as the most probable origin of the pulmonary muscle fibers.
