cardiovascular system
• vascularization in diaphragmatic tendon is impaired, especially in the anterior tendon regions
• diaphragmatic tendon vessels show diverse diameters and sprout discontinuity and vascular plexus density are reduced
• vascular density and sprouting in diaphragmatic muscle is reduced

muscle
• vascular density and sprouting in diaphragmatic muscle is reduced
• microvessels in the diaphragm are dilated and disorganized some vessels terminate with large, distended heads with fewer extending filopodia rather than sprouting and communicating with neighboring vessels
• tip endothelial cells are reduced by 89% in diaphragms
• vascularization in diaphragmatic tendon is impaired, especially in the anterior tendon regions
• 86% of mice exhibit central tendon congenital diaphragmatic hernia

skeleton
