title: [A case of cytomegalic disease of the newborn].
abstract: A generalized form of cytomegalic disease in newborns is relatively rare. According to the author's data, only one case of cytomegalia was observed during post-mortem investigations of 1724 newborns and young children. This was a full-term child which was born with jaundice, generalized petechial rash and hepatosplenomegaly. Histological investigations revealed cytomegalic cells in the lungs, liver, kidneys and parotid salivary glands; in the brain there was noted calcification of the walls of the lateral ventricles. In the stroma of organs lymphoid infiltration with proliferation of histiocytes was observed.
