Congenital Herpesvirus Infections
Clinics in Perinatology, 1979Although herpesvirus infections may be detected in pregnant mothers, effective therapy is lacking. Because the risk of birth defects is great, cesarean section is recommended in mothers with active genital infection with herpesvirus types 1 and 2, and abortion may be considered in patients with active cytomegalovirus infection.

Congenital and perinatal infections
2019Congenital and perinatal infections represent major causes of permanent disability among children worldwide. Linked together by the acronym TORCH, denoting Toxoplasma gondii, rubella virus, cytomegalovirus, and herpes virus, congenital infections can result from only a modest number of human pathogens that cross the placenta and infect the fetus ...

Hematologic manifestations of congenital infections
Infectious Diseases Newsletter, 1981The hematologic manifestations of infections in newborns result from the effects of the organisms and their products on the formed elements of the blood. Hepatocellular damage, activation of the coagulation system, reticuloendothelial hyperplasia, damage to blood vessels and the cardiovascular system, or a combination of these may result.

Congenital lobar emphysema in congenital cytomegalovirus infection
Pediatric Radiology, 1996We report a case of congenital lobar emphysema diagnosed antenatally in an infant of 32 weeks' gestation. Histology and serology confirmed infection with cytomegalovirus (CMV). CMV pneumonitis leading to inflammation and obstruction in the bronchial tree may have resulted in the development of congenital lobar emphysema.

Timely Diagnosis of Congenital Infections
Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1994The acronym TORCH has served to increase awareness of congenital infections; however, this collective term suggests that the clinical manifestations of congenital infections are not distinguishable by pathogen. Although some clinical features may be common to several of these infections, a congenital infection caused by one pathogen generally can be ...
