Human Hantavirus Infections, Sweden [PDF]
The prevalent human hantavirus disease in Sweden is nephropathia epidemica, which is caused by Puumala virus and shed by infected bank voles (Clethrionomys glareolus). To evaluate temporal and spatial patterns of this disease, we studied 2,468 reported cases from a highly disease-endemic region in northern Sweden.

Human Hantavirus Infections in the Netherlands
We report the recent epidemiology and estimated seroprevalence of human hantavirus infections in the Netherlands. Sixty-two cases were reported during December 2008-December 2013. The estimated seroprevalence in the screened municipalities in 2006-2007 was 1.7% (95% CI 1.3%-2.3%).

Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome and coexisting hantavirus pulmonary syndrome
Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) is an acute viral disease with fever, hemorrhage and renal failure caused by hantavirus infection. Hantavirus induces HFRS or hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS).

Encephalitis due to a Hantavirus Infection
Nephropathia epidemica (NE) is the European form of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome caused by a hantavirus infection serotype Puumala. Small rodents serve as the virus reservoir. Characteristic for the clinical picture, though not always present, are a sudden onset, fever, headache and/or abdominal or lumbar pain, reduced renal function ...

Polar release of pathogenic Old World hantaviruses from renal tubular epithelial cells
Background Epithelio- and endotheliotropic viruses often exert polarized entry and release that may be responsible for viral spread and dissemination. Hantaviruses, mostly rodent-borne members of the Bunyaviridae family infect epithelial and endothelial ...

Dobrava Hantavirus Infection Complicated by Panhypopituitarism, Istanbul, Turkey, 2010
We identified Dobrava-Belgrade virus infection in Turkey (from a strain related to hantavirus strains from nearby countries) in a patient who had severe symptoms leading to panhypopituitarism, but no known risk for hantavirus.
