Isolated Brain Cysts in Children Afflicted with Congenital Cytomegalovirus.

ABSTRACT

In our clinic, isolated brain cysts identified via early ultrasound are considered as central nervous system involvement in infants with children with congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV). All infants were diagnosed with caudothalamic or subependymal cysts. When treated according to the cCMV protocol, these patients have an excellent prognosis and no neurological sequelae. Further data on the significance of different cysts in relation to cCMV is warranted.
