Keywords:
pregnancy, Zika virus, occupational therapy, psychomotor developmental delay.Abstract
The case of a female patient, two years old, seen at the Child Neurology Clinic of the International Neurological Restoration Center between June and August 2019, with a diagnosis of static central nervous system lesion of prenatal etiology (genetic-malformative due to neuroblastic migration disorder), caused by intrauterine exposure to Zika virus, which resulted in psychomotor developmental delay and focal epilepsy, was presented. Its evolution was described after receiving the occupational therapy treatment that was applied to favor the areas of psychomotor development (fine motor, self-assistance, cognitive and social) which included 11 weekly sessions of one hour during 84 days. Qualitative and quantitative improvements were observed in all the areas worked on.
