Abstract
Maternal infections with the TORCH viruses (toxoplasmosis, rubella, cytomegalovirus [CMV], and herpes simplex) as well as varicella can develop multiple sequelae depending on the timing of infection and variable responses. Common effects include central nervous system abnormalities, growth restriction, and fetal hydrops.
