Background Congenital Zika Syndrome (CZS) has a broad spectrum of clinical presentations that are still being described. This cohort study aimed to describe the orthopedic complications in children with microcephaly (MCP) related to Zika virus (ZIKV). Methods We evaluated 36 children with CZS up to 17 months of age followed at a pediatric rehabilitation center in the northeast of Brazil. Cohort enrollment occurred with children born between January 2015 and May 2016. We assessed their social profiles and orthopedic findings. Results Of the 36 cases, 25 were male. All of them lived in rural area. 25 had at least one congenital orthopedic alteration. Hip subluxation was the most common problem detected (n = 15); other lower limb abnormalities included knee subluxation (n = 7), clubfoot (n = 7); congenital vertical talus (n = 4); plano-valgus foot (n = 5). In relation to the upper limbs, 11 children presented with some shoulder and/or elbow abnormality and 16 had some alteration in the hand and/or on the wrist. Conclusion Orthopedic problems appear to be common in children with CZS and should be a focus of larger clinical studies. An initial orthopedic assessment may provide a better quality of life by helping children avoid further complications/deformities. Our results emphasize the orthopedic problems associated with CZS and the need to better describe many complications in the natural history of this infection.
