Abstract: Congenital cytomegalovirus infection is one of the most common causes of fetal malformation and delayed sensorineural hearing loss.

We hope to bring new ideas on the treatment of congenital human cytomegalovirus(HCMV) infection through in-depth discussion on the treatment of CMV infection in pregnancy and neonatal CMV infection.
