Prenatal Diagnosis, 2020
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection during pregnancy can cause severe neonatal infections. It is also a rare cause of congenital infections. We aimed to describe fetal and neonatal abnormalities of congenital HSV infection in order to define the ...

The most common congenital infections are described by the acronym TORCH: toxoplasmosis, other (such as syphilis, parvovirus, and HIV), rubella, cytomegalovirus and herpes simplex virus. With the exception of toxoplasmosis caused by protozoa, the etiological agent of fetal congenital infections is usually a virus.

Neurologic Clinics, 2002
Despite major medical advances, such as the introduction of the rubella vaccine and prolonged postnatal therapy of infants with congenital toxoplasmosis, intrauterine infections remain important causes of deafness, vision loss, and behavioral or neurologic disorders among children worldwide.

Congenital cytomegalovirus infections
Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2007Congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is one of the most common viral causes of congenital infections in high resource countries and a leading cause of hearing loss as well as an important contributor to neurodevelopmental disabilities in children.

Congenital cytomegalovirus infection
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1969Abstract Five cases of congenital cytomegalovirus infection are presented. In the three cases studied by virologic and immunologic techniques, it was demonstrated that complement-fixing antibody titers are low in contrast to the postnatally acquired infection.

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 Viral Infection: Traversing the Uterine-Placental Interface.
Annual Review of Virology, 2018Why certain viruses cross the physical barrier of the human placenta but others do not is incompletely understood. Over the past 20 years, we have gained deeper knowledge of intrauterine infection and routes of viral transmission.

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 ...

Congenital Cytomegalovirus Infection
New England Journal of Medicine, 1977The overall prevalence of congenital cytomegalovirus infection among the offspring of a highly immune young female population was 2.4 per cent (23 of 939). To ascertain whether the presence of anticytomegalovirus antibodies protects the developing fetus, we examined the offspring of 239 prospectively studied women.

Congenital and Perinatal Cytomegalovirus Infections
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1990Cytomegalovirus is the most common cause of congenital and perinatal viral infections throughout the world. Congenital infection occurs in 1% of all live births in developed countries and in an even higher percentage in developing nations. As a result of transmission during birth, by breast milk, and by blood transfusion, perinatal infections are much ...
