The authors of this prospective observational study describe the frequency of hearing
loss in children with congenital Zika syndrome (CZS). They hypothesized CZS may
contribute to functional disabilities due to continued viral activity in neural tissue
following birth. The study showed that sensorineural hearing loss is a clinical feature of
CZS and present at birth with no delayed onset or progressive decline in hearing.
