Abstract:
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection during pregnancy may cause spontaneous abortion, stillbirth, and death of newborns. CMV is the most common congenital infection in newborns. It generally has a benign course in immunocompetent individuals, while the severe disease is usually seen in immunocompromised patients. Most of the published studies about CMV infection describe congenital abnormalities in newborns. Only a handful of case reports mention CMV infection associated with elevated transaminases during pregnancy. Here, we present a case of incomplete abortion with elevated liver enzymes in a 26-year-old female caused by CMV infection. Our case report illustrates the importance of considering CMV infection as a differential in an incomplete abortion associated with elevated liver enzymes.
摘要:
怀孕期间巨细胞病毒(CMV)感染可能导致自然流产,死产,和新生儿的死亡。CMV是新生儿最常见的先天性感染。它通常在有免疫能力的个体中具有良性病程,而严重的疾病通常见于免疫功能低下的患者。大多数已发表的关于CMV感染的研究描述了新生儿的先天性异常。只有少数病例报告提到与怀孕期间转氨酶升高相关的CMV感染。这里,我们介绍一例26岁女性因CMV感染引起的肝酶升高的不完全流产病例.我们的病例报告说明了将CMV感染视为与肝酶升高相关的不完全流产的区别的重要性。
