Abstract
We present a case of prenatal diagnosis of congenital rubella. After birth, in addition to traditional serologic and clinical examinations to confirm the infection, we could identify the virus in the "first fluid aspirated from the oropharynx of the newborn", using polimerase chain reaction (PCR). We propose that this first oropharynx fluid (collected routinely immediately after birth) could be used as a source for identification of various congenital infection agents, which may not always be easily identified by current methodsRelatamos um caso de diagnĂłstico prĂ©-natal de rubĂ©ola congĂȘnita. ApĂłs o nascimento, alĂ©m da confirmação feita atravĂ©s do exame fĂsico e sorolĂłgico do recĂ©m-nascido, o vĂrus tambĂ©m pode ser demonstrado no primeiro fluido aspirado da orofaringe do recĂ©m-nascido, utilizando-se a reação em cadeia da polimerase (PCR). Sugerimos que este fluido (colhido rotineiramente no momento da reanimação neonatal) possa ser utilizado na pesquisa de outros agentes infecciosos, que nĂŁo sĂŁo facilmente identificados por outros mĂ©todos
