Congenital cytomegalovirus infection - An update.

S Friedman1, E L Ford-Jones.   

Abstract

Cytomegalovirus is estimated to be the leading infectious cause of nonheriditary sensorneural loss and a significant cause of mental retardation. Approximately 1% of newborn infants are congenitally infected with the virus. This review summarizes recent developments concerning this infection, including clinical outcome, risk factors for aquisition diagnosis and therapy.
