HIG is a treatment option to prevent maternal-fetal transmission in pregnancy with a primary CMV infection. However, HIG treatment seems to be beneficial primarily in women with a recent primary infection in the first trimester or during the periconceptional period, and when it is administered at a biweekly dose of 200 IU/kg. © 2021 The Authors.
