Prenatal Diagnosis of Congenital Cytomegalovirus Infection
We report here the results of a study on the prenatal diagnosis of congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection. The study was carried out by both PCR and virus isolation from amniotic fluid (AF) for 82 pregnant women at risk of transmitting CMV for the detection of (i) seroconversion to CMV immunoglobulin G (IgG) positivity during the first trimester of pregnancy, (ii) symptomatic CMV infection ...

OBJECTIVE To assess prospectively the diagnostic reliability and prognostic significance of prenatal diagnosis of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection. METHODS One hundred ten pregnant women (four with twin pregnancies) with a risk of congenital CMV infection were investigated. Prenatal diagnosis was carried out by amniocentesis and fetal blood sampling (n = 75) or amniocentesis alone (n = 35). Se...

متن کاملDiagnosis of Maternal and Congenital Cytomegalovirus Infection
Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) is one of the eight viruses belonging to the Herpesviridae family to infect humans. CMV belongs to the Betaherpesvirinae subfamily of viruses characterized by a restricted host spectrum, in vitro replication in fibroblasts of the natural host species in vivo, a slow replication cycle, the induction of intranuclear and intracytoplasmic inclusions and the ability to in...
متن کاملEvaluation of new commercial real-time PCR quantification assay for prenatal diagnosis of cytomegalovirus congenital infection.
A new commercial real-time human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) PCR kit was evaluated after automated DNA extraction of 153 amniotic fluids in parallel with an in-house real-time PCR assay. The commercial kit displayed 100% sensitivity/specificity compared to the "in-house" assay and was suitable for prenatal diagnosis of HCMV congenital infection.
