ABSTRACT Congenital Zika syndrome is an emergent cause of a congenital infectious disorder, resulting in severe damage to the central nervous system and microcephaly. Despite advances in understanding the pathophysiology of the disease, we still do not know all the mechanisms enrolled in the vertical transmission of the virus. As has already been reported in other types of congenital infectious disorders in dizygotic twin pregnancies, it is possible that the virus affects only one of the fetuses. ...

Abstract Background Congenital arthrogryposis (CA) consists of congenital joint contractures that affect at least two joints in different parts of the body. Approximately, 80% of CA cases are neurogenic, with changes to the formation, structure or functioning of the central and/or peripheral nervous systems. Most abnormalities are triggered either by motoneurons decreased activation in the corticospinal tract or by direct motoneurons injury. There had been few reports in the literature correlating ...

Congenital Zika virus syndrome is a distinct pattern of birth defects in fetuses infected by the Zika virus. It presents a broad clinical spectrum that includes occurrences of microcephaly, hypertonia, dysphagia, hyperexcitability, seizures, and arthrogryposis. Imaging findings show neuronal migration disorders.Case reports have suggested that arthrogryposis has a neurogenic cause. We analyzed needle electromyography and nerve conduction examinations on 77 patients aged 2-24 months presenting highly ...
