Abstract

Cytomegalovirus is the most common etiologic agent of congenital infections. If the fetus is infected by the virus in the first trimester of gestation, 10-15% of newborns present symptoms at birth. These symptomatic neonates exhibit a multisystem disease including intrauterine growth retardation, hepatosplenomegaly, cholestasis, impaired liver function tests, pneumonia, pancytopenia, hemolytic anemia, petechia, purpura, dermal erythropoiesis and central nervous system signs. Among the variable central nervous system findings, neuronal migration anomalies are infrequently identified in neonates. Herein, a premature neonate with neuronal migration anomaly due to congenital cytomegalovirus infection is presented

Konjenital CMV Enfeksiyonun Prematürelerde Nadir Görülen Santral Sinir Sistemi Bulgusu: Nöronal Migrasyon Anomalisi

Abstract

Sitomegalovirüs en sık konjenital enfeksiyon yapan etkendir. Gebeliğin erken döneminde enfekte olan fetusların %10- 15’i doğumda semptomatik olup, olgularda intrauterin büyüme kısıtlanması, hepatosplenomegali, kolestaz, karaciğer fonksiyon testlerinde bozulma, pnömoni, pansitopeni, hemolitik anemi, peteşi, purpura, dermal eritropoez ve santral sinir sistemi bulgularının belirgin olduğu ağır sistemik hastalık tablosu görülmektedir. Konjenital CMV enfeksiyonunda santral sinir sitemine ait bulgular oldukça çeşitli olup nöronal migrasyon anomalileri nadiren tespit edilmektedir. Burada ağır nöronal migrasyon anomalisinin ön planda olduğu konjenital sitomegalovirüs enfeksiyonu olan bir prematüre yenidoğan olgusu sunulmaktadır.
