This study aimed to investigate mortality rates and associated factors in CDH neonates in Vietnam.<h4>Methods</h4>This retrospective observational study included CDH neonates admitted to a central children's hospital in Vietnam between November 2021 and September 2023. We collected data on neonates' characteristics, management, complications, and outcomes, comparing these data between survivors and non-survivors. We also employed logistic regression analysis to identify factors associated with hospital mortality.<h4>Results</h4>Of 74 neonates with CDH, 64.9% (48/74) were male. The hospital mortality rate was 50.0% (37/74).
