Outcome of fetuses with congenital cytomegalovirus infection: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

CONCLUSIONS: In fetuses with congenital CMV infection showing no anomalies on both US and MRI, the risk of adverse postnatal outcome is lower compared to what reported from previously published literature not considering the role of antenatal imaging assessment. The findings from this study can enhance prenatal counselling of pregnancies with congenital CMV infection with normal prenatal imaging. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
