West Syndrome in Children With Congenital Zika Virus Infection.

Congenital Zika infection has been linked with a characteristic phenotype including neurologic sequelae. However, West syndrome has not been previously well described as a consequence. We aim to show this association through a retrospective descriptive study performed in Ecuador. Among 147 infants with congenital Zika infection, 7.5% suffered from West syndrome. Vigabatrin seems to be effective to control the spasms.
