Rubella is associated with an 80% risk of congenital abnormalities if acquired in the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. Reinfection in early pregnancy presents a much smaller risk. Prenatal diagnosis may be useful to assess the risk to the fetus. Congenital rubella is a progressive disease and some abnormalities will not be present at birth.
