Updated imaging findings in congenital Zika Syndrome: A disease story that is still being written

In congenital Zika virus syndrome (CZS), the most frequent radiological findings are calcifications in the cortical-white matter junction and malformations of cortical development (pachygyria or polymicrogyria, which occur predominantly in the frontal lobes, or a simplified gyral pattern), ventriculomegaly, enlargement of the cisterna magna and the extra-axial subarachnoid space, corpus callosum abnormalities, and reduced brain volume. This syndrome can also result in a decrease in the brainstem and cerebellum volumes and delayed myelination. Infants with CZS may show venous thrombosis and lenticulostriate vasculopathies. Over a 3-year follow-up period, many infants with CZS showed hydrocephalus, reduction in brain calcifications, and greater reduction in brain thickness.
