We read with interest the recent work about Zika virus in The Lancet Infectious Diseases and The Lancet. Even if still yet to be confirmed, the association between infection during pregnancy and birth defects is alarming. Recommendations for management of pregnant women at risk of Zika virus infection (ie, those living in endemic areas or who travelled to an area with active virus  circulation), are urgently needed. In this Correspondence, we, as perinatal and infectious diseases specialists suggest a detailed management algorithm to help health-care providers (appendix). These recommendations should be adapted to local guidelines, as well as to any further updates on Zika virus.
