“…Solari y col. (12) proponen en la búsqueda de pacientes con tuberculosis un ajuste en la cobertura de sintomáticos respiratorios a una proporción menor al 5% de la consulta externa. Graciela Santos y col. (13) estiman la prevalencia de microcefalia, información relevante dada la carencia de estudios basales, lo cual no permite determinar el impacto de algunas enfermedades emergentes como fue en su momento fue el Zika. También es interesante, el artículo Rosa Adrianzén y col. (14) sobre la necesidad de hacer una evaluación integral de los pacientes con diabetes mellitus desde su diagnóstico para abordar oportunamente complicaciones como la retinopatía diabética.…”

This review highlights the history of Developmental Biology studies in Latin-American countries of Central America, the northern region of South America and the Caribbean and their impact on the field. For this, we have compiled the contributions made by investigators in various institutions of the region, including universities, agricultural, research and health centers. Most of the contributions focus on particular fields, among them, Evo-Devo, regenerative biology, nervous system development and health related issues. A large share of the contributions originates from a subset of countries, primarily, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Panama and Puerto Rico. In addition, we underscore the new investigators and the ongoing research in the region.

We report the case of an infant born with congenital Zika syndrome (CZS). During the largest Zika virus (ZIKV) outbreak in Peru, the mother presented with fever and rash that were confirmed to be due to ZIKV by real-time PCR. The infant was born with severe microcephaly. Imaging revealed corpus callosum dysgenesis, lissencephaly, ventriculomegaly, and calcifications. Mild hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with diastolic dysfunction was reported in the echocardiogram. Valgus deviation of the lower extremities and a left clubfoot were diagnosed at birth. The hip ultrasound showed incipient signs of Graf type II dysplasia. The findings confirm that CZS is a multiorgan phenotype in which microcephaly is merely the tip of the iceberg. A multidisciplinary approach is needed for the evaluation of these children.
