متن کاملPrenatal diagnosis of congenital rubella.
Rubella contracted in early pregnancy is associated with a high frequency of congenital anomalies in the infant. Viral transmission occurs in overt as well as occult maternal illness with or without a rise in maternal rubella antibody titres. It is thus both difficult and important to determine whether the fetus has become infected in utero. One approach is to isolate rubella virus from amnioti...
متن کاملRetrospective diagnosis of congenital rubella.
One hundred and five children and adolescents with impaired hearing and 19 with impaired vision underwent in vitro tests (lymphocyte responsiveness and serum antibody to rubella) for retrospective diagnosis of intrauterine rubella. Tests yielded results consistent with intrauterine rubella in 30 (29%) of the patients with impaired hearing but only one (5%) of those with impaired vision. In addi...
