The neurodevelopmental state of 41 children with congenital cytomegalovirus infection and their controls was assessed at 2 years using the Griffiths scale. The scores achieved by children with congenital cytomegalovirus but with no associated neurological abnormality (asymptomatic) were similar to those of the control children, whereas the mean score of the five children with congenital infecti...

There is a close link between the embryological development of the musculoskeletal system and all other main organ systems. We report a prospective series of 202 patients with congenital vertebral abnormalities and document the associated abnormalities in other systems. There were 100 boys and 102 girls. In 153 there were 460 associated abnormalities, a mean of 2.27 abnormalities for each patie...
