Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) is a rare condition. The main characteristic is respiratory insufficiency during sleep. Patients who have CCHS need varying degrees of ventilation support during sleep, or even all day long, according to its severity. We report a term baby with repeated extubation failure, CCHS and Hirschsprung's disease diagnosed at 1 month of age. This patient was discharged at 5 months old with a home ventilator and reached normal developmental milestones.
先天性中枢性肺泡通气不足症（CCHS）是一种罕见的疾病。主要特征是睡眠期间呼吸不足。根据其严重程度，患有 CCHS 的患者在睡眠期间需要不同程度的通气支持，甚至全天都需要。我们报告了一例 1 个月大的婴儿，因反复拔管失败，诊断为 CCHS 和先天性巨结肠。该患者在 5 个月大时出院，携带家用呼吸机，达到正常的发育里程碑。
