Research Abstract |
Approximately 25% of congenital sensorineural hearing loss is caused by congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, which also affects higher brain functions. We evaluated cochlear implant (CI) outcomes of deaf children with congenital CMV infection, some of which suffered from pervasive developmental disorders (PDD) including autistic disorder. Incases with out PDD, the postoperative CI- aided language development is significantly associated with their preoperative cognitive development,but incases with PDD, their CI- aided language development was much lower than those expected from their cognitive development. These data suggests that mechanism of language retardation in PDD might be d fferent from those in other higher brain dysfunctions including mental retardation.
