Summary
Adverse neurological effects of maternal infection, in particular syphilis, on the developing fetus has been recognized for centuries (1). In 1971, Nahmius and coworkers proposed the acronym TORCH, in recognition of the fact that Toxoplasma gondii, rubella, cytomegalovirus, and herpes simplex virus infections could produce a similar spectrum of abnormalities (2). The acronym was later expanded to STORCH to include syphilis, with the “O” including others. In this chapter, we will address the maternal infections that can be associated with congenital brain damage.
