DIAGNÓSTICO RETROSPECTIVO DE LA INFECCIÓN CONGÉNITA POR CITOMEGALOVIRUS
El citomegalovirus congénito permanece infradiagnosticado en ausencia de clínica neonatal. Puede manifestarse con retraso de crecimiento intrauterino, microcefalia, hipoacusia neurosensorial, coriorretinitis, retardo mental y trastorno del espectro autista. El diagnóstico de certeza sólo se puede realizar pasadas las 3 primeras semanas mediante la detección de ADN de citomegalovirus a partir de sangre del papel de filtro del cribado neonatal.

  NEUROCYSTICERCOSIS IN CENTRAL INDIA: CLINICAL PROFILE AND TREATMENT OUTCOMES
Neurocysticercosis is a parasitic disease of central nervous system, more commonly affecting young persons, in their third decade and being equally common among vegetarians. Most commonly, it presents with seizures. In Indian patients, single small enhancing lesion is the most common presentation. Clinical and radiological response to 4-week therapy with albendazole is quite satisfactory. All cases of young-onset epilepsy in tropical countries should be investigated for neurocysticercosis.
