Abstract

The evidences of fetal infection may be as subtle as nascent intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), mildly inappropriate calcification of fetal organs or secundines (placenta, cord and membranes), or failure to adequately develop fetal fat reserves, or may be as dramatic as obvious fetal malformation, severe central nervous system structural damage or fetal death. Ultrasonographic examination is capable of detecting some of the subtle effects and most of the grave alterations that are typical of fetal infection.
