Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1995
The causes of fever in a child can vary from minor brief illnesses to life-threatening infectious, malignant, or autoimmune diseases. The physician often has to evaluate children with fevers of as yet undiagnosed cause lasting fewer than 2 weeks, in whom it is important to determine whether localizing findings are present.

Postgraduate Medicine, 1964
A plan of management for the patient with fever of unknown origin is described. Diagnosis can be made within a week of onset of the fever in many cases, with basic observations consisting of a carefully taken and complete history, physical examination, blood cultures, urinalysis, complete blood cell count and chest x-ray.

The evaluation of an FUO is a significant test of all a physician's clinical skills. The ultimate goal of the physician is to reach a diagnosis and to cure the patient in the best possible situation. Despite such pressure both externally and self-imposed, a physician needs to meticulously follow the patient and logically pursue the available diagnostic

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1977
One of the most difficult challenges in clinical medicine is arriving at a specific diagnosis for a fever of unknown origin (FUO). The cause of a FUO will frequently remain obscure and frustrate the best diagnostic efforts of an aggressive house staff backed up by learned consultants and a medical center equipped with the latest and most sophisticated ...

Barclay, MD, applauded the article on the editorial page (238:2404, 1977). Frankly, I found it distressing that a 39-year-old woman underwent a "million dollar work-up" including an exploratory laparotomy and other invasive ...

Recurrent Fevers of Unknown Origin
Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 2007Recurrent fever of unknown origin is mostly caused by rather rare diseases and many cases remain unexplained. The very limited literature data do not allow one to construct a diagnostic algorithm. A number of general principles should be kept in mind before starting the investigation for this rare subtype of fever of unknown origin.
