Differentiating Congenital CMV from Other Congenital Infections
The most important congenital infections, which can be transmitted vertically from mother to fetus are the TORCH infections. These infections have overlapping features and hence, must be differentiated from congenital CMV infection:[1]
| Congenital Infection | Cardiac Findings | Skin Findings | Ocular Findings | Hepatosplenomegaly | Hydrocephaly | Microcephaly | Intracranial Calcifications | Hearing deficits |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cytomegalovirus (CMV) | ✔ | ✔ | — | ✔ | Periventricular calcifications | ✔ | ||
| Toxoplasmosis | — | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | Diffuse intracranial calcifications | — | ||
| Treponema pallidum | — | ✔ | — | — | — | — | ||
| Rubella | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | — | ✔ | |||
| Herpes simplex virus (HSV) | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | — | ✔ | |||
| Parvovirus B19 | ✔ | — | — | — | — |
