Effect of ganciclovir on neonatal congenital cytomegalovirus infection

Objective: To observe the clinical effects of ganciclovir on neonatal congenital cylomegalovirus(CMV) infection.Methods: Fifty-three patients with neonatal congenital CMV infection were randomly divided into the virazole group(26 cases) and the ganciclovir group(27 cases),and the clinical manifestations and therapeutic effects were compared.Results: There were significant differences in the clinical manifestation,laboratory examination and virology test result between the virazole group and the ganciclovir group after treatment(P<0.05).Conclusions: Ganciclovir has obvious effects on neonatal congenital CMV infection with littler side effect,so it is worth widespreading in clinical practice.
