Fatal enterovirus 71 encephalomyelitis

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1998
During an outbreak of hand-foot-mouth disease caused by enterovirus 71 (EV-71) in 1997, 4 children presented with sudden cardiopulmonary collapse and minimal neurologic features. All children received cardiopulmonary resuscitation but died within a few hours of admission. Postmortem studies showed infection by EV-71 with extensive damage to the medulla

Update on enterovirus 71 infection

Current Opinion in Virology, 2014
Human enterovirus type 71 (EV71) has emerged as a major cause of viral encephalitis in children worldwide. The identified EV71 receptors provide useful information for understanding EV71replication and tissue tropism. Host factors interact with the internal ribosome entry site (IRES) of EV71 to regulate viral translation.

Enteroviruses: Enterovirus 71

2014
Although poliomyelitis has been eradicated from much of the globe, during the past 15 years countries in the Asia-Pacific region have been afflicted by large outbreaks of infection with the related human enterovirus A71 (EV71). This infection affects mostly children, causing hand-foot-and-mouth disease, aseptic meningitis, poliomyelitis-like acute ...

Enterovirus 71 meningoencephalitis complicating rituximab therapy

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2011
We describe a fatal case of proven enterovirus 71 meningoencephalitis complicating monoclonal anti-CD20 antibody therapy for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. B-cell depletion, an effective treatment strategy in an expanding spectrum of hematological and inflammatory disorders, impairs neutralising antibody-mediated clearance of enterovirus. The global threat of

Enterovirus 71 Encephalitis

2006
Enterovirus 71 (EV71) was first described in 1974 after it was isolated from patients in California (Schmidt et al., 1974) and has been associated with sporadic cases or outbreaks of a wide spectrum of diseases, including hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD), herpangina, aseptic meningitis, encephalitis, cerebellar ataxia, poliomyelitis-like syndrome ...

Neural pathogenesis of enterovirus 71 infection

Microbes and Infection, 2010
Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is a neurotropic pathogen that can cause severe neural diseases and complications on infected patients. Clinical observations showed that EV71-induced immune responses may be associated with virus induced neurogenic pulmonary edema.

Fulminant enterovirus 71 infection: case report

Annals of Tropical Paediatrics, 2010
A previously healthy 3-year-old boy presented with high-grade fever, dyspnoea, alteration of consciousness, tachycardia and shock. A few erythematous macules and papules were seen on his palms and soles. Echocardiogram showed poor left ventricular contraction. Cardiac enzymes and pro-B-type natriuretic peptide were elevated.

Diseases Caused by Enterovirus 71 Infection

Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2009
The purpose of this review was to explore the epidemiology, pathogenesis, virology, and management of enterovirus 71 (EV71) infection. Published literature was surveyed by Medline using the keyword "EV71." The reported incidence of cases of hand-foot-mouth disease/herpangina varied from year to year; seasonal variations in incidence were observed, with

Enterovirus 71: epidemiology, pathogenesis and management

Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy, 2009
Enterovirus 71 (EV71) has emerged as a major cause of neurological threat in the world following the eradication of poliovirus. Most EV71 infections commonly result in hand-foot-mouth disease or herpangina, and some cases are associated with brainstem encephalitis and acute flaccid paralysis.

Global Epidemiology of Enterovirus 71

Future Virology, 2009
In the past decade Enterovirus 71 (EV71) has emerged as an important cause of outbreaks of hand, foot and mouth disease in children associated with severe neurological complications. Globally, the Asia–Pacific region is the most severely affected with regular recurring outbreaks.
