CMV infection. Gestational age: 35 weeks. (a) Fetal Axial SSFSE T2. (b) Postnatal cerebral MRI at 8 days of life, axial FSE T2. The presence of diffuse affectation of the white matter of parietal predominance (solid black arrowhead) with mild ventriculomegaly (empty white arrow) is shown. Fetal MRI provided useful information for perinatal management and prognosis over fetal ultrasound by detecting left frontal (solid white arrow) and left Sylvian fissure (solid black arrow) polymicrogyria not visible in the fetal ultrasound.
