We are reporting a neonate admitted in the pediatric emergency ward with the respiratory distress since 16(th )day of life. Investigation revealed the overexpansion of the left upper lobe with mediastinal herniation, shifting of the mediastinum to the opposite side and collapse of the ipsilateral lower lobe.
