| مستخلص: |
Zika virus (ZIKV) is a widespread flavivirus transmitted to humans through the bite of Aedes mosquitoes. The number of ZIKV cases increased significantly between 2015 and 2016, and Brazil was the first to report autochthonous transmission of infection. The main neurological disorder related to ZIKV infection is microcephaly. Fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the gold standard examination for the analysis of fetal brain infection, followed by obstetric ultrasonography. Cerebral atrophy, intracranial calcifications, ventriculomegaly, cerebellar, and brain gyrus abnormalities are some of the most common findings. Postnatal MRI shows high sensitivity and specificity. Corpus callosum abnormalities, cerebellar hypoplasia, and choroid plexus dilation can be also observed. We present a review of congenital ZIKV infection with emphasis on pre and postnatal brain findings using ultrasonography, MRI, computed tomography, and three-dimensional reconstruction models.
