Forgetful
Do not forget that acute maternal infection may occur after screening - in resource-rich settings such as the UK and America, a significant proportion of perinatal transmission of HIV occurs due to infection acquired during pregnancy [ 10 ]. [patient.info]
Workup
The association of fetal birth defects with enteroviral infection is puzzling and suggests that more attention should be given to virologie studies in the diagnostic workup of fetal malformations otherwise considered as idiopathic. 1994 S. [karger.com]

Liver Biopsy
Vero cells, A549 cells, and liver biopsy specimens from patients with hepatitis C infection were used as negative controls, and EV71 strain TW/2272/98—infected Vero cells were used as positive controls. [academic.oup.com]
Usefulness of clinical features and liver biopsy in diagnosis of disseminated herpes simplex infection. Arch Dis Child 1984 ; 59 :820–4. Egawa, H, Inomata, Y, Nakayama, S. [cambridge.org]
Treatment
Make informed clinical choices for each patient, from diagnosis and treatment selection through post-treatment strategies and management of complications, with new evidence-based criteria throughout. [books.google.com]
Management and treatment There is no specific curative treatment for EV maternal or congenital infection. Prognosis Prognosis of mild congenital EV infections is quite good if reanimation procedures are available. [orpha.net]
IV acyclovir (20 mg/kg/dose Q8 hrs) Side Effect: neutropenia but without adverse clinical outcomes Treatment at end of pregnancy to prevent recurrences SEM: Systemic treatment to avoid progression High dose IV acyclovir Q8hr for 14 days CNS disease: [pedclerk.bsd.uchicago.edu]
Prognosis
Prognosis Prognosis of mild congenital EV infections is quite good if reanimation procedures are available. Prognosis of severe congenital EV infections is poor and the disease has been reported to be fatal. [orpha.net]
The prognosis is depending on recovery of cardiac function and other organ functions. In extreme cases, ECMO therapy has to be considered. The duration of the cardiac therapy (beta- blockers, diuretics, ACE inhibitors, etc.) is unclear. [adc.bmj.com]

Etiology
A suggestion is proposed that the severe course of suppurative-inflammatory conditions and the general character of neonatal bacterial infection are largely determined by the immunodeficient states which are etiologically related to congenital enterovirus [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Etiology Coxsackie A, B, ECHO viruses, and numbered EVs are believed to cross the placenta and cause fetal disease. [orpha.net]
A high index of suspicion for congenital infection and awareness of the prominent features of the most common etiologies will help to facilitate early diagnosis and management. [accesspediatrics.mhmedical.com]
Etiologic Agents Viruses CMV, HSV, Erythrovirus (Parvovirus) B19, Enteroviruses, Hepatitis B virus, VZV, HIV, Rubella. [atsu.edu]

Pathophysiology
Pathophysiology [ edit ] Virulence versus symbiosis [ edit ] In the spectrum of optimal virulence, vertical transmission tends to evolve benign symbiosis. It is, therefore, a critical concept for evolutionary medicine. [en.wikipedia.org]
Asian flu pandemic reported a mortality rate of approximately 50% among infected pregnant women. [21] During the 2009 H1N1 pandemic, pregnant women accounted for 5% of all deaths and were more likely to be hospitalized than the general population. [22] Pathophysiology [emedicine.medscape.com]

The National Institute of Infectious Diseases has produced guidelines on i) rubella prevention in the workplace, ii) rubella prevention in medical settings, iii) local government’s response to rubella outbreaks, iv) establishment of committees and other [niid.go.jp]
Primary prevention includes vaccination for varicella and rubella (prior to pregnancy ), screening for syphilis, and hygiene measures (washing hands, and avoiding certain foods) during pregnancy. [amboss.com]
