A Case of Congenital Cytomegalovirus Infection Presenting with Lissencephaly

We report here a case of congenital cytomegalovirus infection presenting with lissencephaly-pachygyria and the evaluation of neuroradiological studies of this case including ultrasonography, cranial computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. We propose that congenital cytomegalovirus infection during the early gestational period is one of the important causes of lissencephaly-pachygyria. Therefore, virological and immunological studies should be performed during the early neonatal period.
