cytomegalic inclusion disease

[si″to-meg´ah-lik in-kloo´zhun] any of a group of diseases caused by cytomegalovirus infection, marked by characteristic inclusion bodies in enlarged infected cells. In the fetus and infant, infection can be acquired in utero from the mother, transmitted from mother to infant in passage through the birth canal, or transmitted in the mother's milk. Most infected infants are asymptomatic, but in some there may be hepatosplenomegaly, jaundice, chorioretinitis, purpura, microcephaly, cerebral calcifications, and severe central nervous system sequelae with blindness, deafness, quadriplegia, and mental retardation. Acquired disease is transmitted via respiratory droplets, tissue or blood donation, or sexual transmission. Another acquired infection is mononucleosis" >cytomegalovirus mononucleosis. In immunocompromised patients there may be a disseminated, sometimes fatal, infection as well as specific syndromes such as cytomegalovirus pneumonia or retinitis" >cytomegalovirus retinitis.

cy·to·meg·a·lic in·clu·sion dis·ease

caused by cytomegalovirus, a member of the Herpesviridae family; the presence of inclusion bodies within the cytoplasm and nuclei of enlarged cells of various organs of newborn infants dying with jaundice, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, purpura, thrombocytopenia, and fever; the condition also occurs, at all ages, as a complication of other diseases in which immune mechanisms are severely depressed, and has been found incidentally in salivary gland epithelium, apparently as a localized or mild infection (salivary gland virus disease). Synonym(s): cytomegalovirus disease, inclusion body disease

cytomegalic inclusion disease

A viral infection of newborns and immunocompromised adults.

Clinical findings
In utero infection leads to spontaneous abortion, stillbirth, or congenital defects; opportunistic CID in immunocompromised hosts may cause fever, hepatosplenomegaly.

Sequelae
Mental retardation.

Patient discussion about cytomegalic inclusion disease

Q. What is it CMV during pregnancy? can i infect with that? A. CMV is a virus. What you refer to is infection with CMV, either the initial infection, or re-activation of latent (dormant) virus that resides in the mother's body during pregnancy.
The dangers are that CMV will infect the fetus, which may cause malformations, particularly growth restriction and hearing impairment.

Q. What is it CMV during pregnancy ? can i infect with that? A. CMV or cytomegalovirus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytomegalovirus) is a virus that can cause disease (i.e. infectious mononucleosis, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infectious_mononucleosis) in everyone, not only pregnant women. The problem is that when a pregnant woman is infected in CMV for the first time of her life during pregnancy, CMV can cause malformations and problems with the baby, including hearing impairment and others (see also TORCHES: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TORCH_infections).
