BACKGROUND: Intrauterine cytomegalovirus infection is usually unrecognized during pregnancy. However, in some cases, ultrasound abnormalities can be observed in association with cytomegalovirus infection.
CASE: The prenatal diagnosis of cytomegalovirus infection in a fetus with transient hydrops is reported. Fetal ascites was first recognized by routine ultrasound examination at 20 weeks' gestation. Hydrops fetalis was obvious at 23 weeks and completely resolved 1 week later. Cytomegalovirus was detected from amniotic fluid samples by centrifugal culture and direct immunofluorescent examination. The diagnosis of maternal primary infection could be established retrospectively by demonstrating immunoglobulin (Ig) G and IgM seroconversion on sequential sera. The pregnancy was electively terminated. Autopsy findings were consistent with fetal disseminated infection.
CONCLUSION: Transient hydrops fetalis in association with intrauterine cytomegalovirus infection is infrequent. The resolution of hydrops fetalis could be explained by hepatic dysfunction of limited duration. Amniotic fluid culture is a reliable approach for diagnosing intrauterine cytomegalovirus infection, but does not predict the severity of the disease or the outcome of the pregnancy. The long-term clinical significance of intrauterine cytomegalovirus infection has to be established.
