pubmed:abstractText
Congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection affects approximately 1% of live births in the US. Ten percent of these infants have symptoms at birth and another 10 to 15% acquire hearing loss or developmental problems. Congenital CMV is the most common cause of nonhereditary sensorineural hearing loss in children, and progressive hearing loss is common. To arrest the natural progression of congenital CMV, children referred to our center were treated with a prolonged course of ganciclovir.
