The cytomegalovirus is an infectious pathogen that causes a disease that can cause major difficulties in infants, allograft recipients, and people with any type of immunodeficiency. Because of their exposure to contaminating elements, developing countries are the most afflicted, with a prevalence of 97 percent in Cameroonian adults. It's an illness with a high cumulative incidence for which paediatric epidemiological data is scarce. Furthermore, the efficacy of measures to prevent transmission is poorly understood. The goal of this study was to determine the prevalence of anti-cytomegalovirus antibodies among newborns in order to provide better prenatal care.

Keywords : Cytomegalovirus, child, antibody, prevalence, Cameroon.
