    Abstract:
    Valacyclovir is currently the only pharmacological intervention demonstrated to reduce the risk of vertical CMV congenital infection within a randomized clinical trial in case of primary infection during pregnancy. So far, no data are available on the prognosis of children with congenital CMV infection diagnosed at birth after a negative amniocentesis whose mother were treated with valacyclovir during pregnancy, therefore it is essential to carry out a rigorous neurocognitive follow-up in these children in order to investigate the potential clinical consequence.
