Patterns of Puumala virus infection in Finland
Puumala hantavirus infection is prevalent throughout most of Europe, and in endemic areas it may be the most common cause of acute renal failure. To evaluate trends in incidence of Puumala virus infections in Finland, we analysed national surveillance data in 12-month periods from March 1995 to February 2002. During this time, 8184 laboratory-confirmed

HEMORRHAGIC FEVER WITH RENAL SYNDROME IN CHILDREN OF THE GORIŠKA REGION IN 2021
Hantaviruses are spread worldwide and cause haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome(HMRS). The two serotypes occurring in Slovenia are Puumala and Dobrava viruses. Puumala virus causes a milder disease, whereas Dobrava virus causes a more severe form. The

Puumala Virus RNA in Patient with Multiorgan Failure
To the Editor: The hantaviruses (genus Hantavirus, family Bunyaviridae) include human pathogens and occur worldwide (1). In Western and Central Europe, the predominant serotype is Puumala virus (PUUV), which causes epidemic nephropathy. We report the first Austrian patient with reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)–confirmed PUUV ...

Demographic factors associated with hantavirus infection in bank voles (Clethrionomys glareolus) [PDF]
The bank vole (Clethrionomys glareolus) is the natural reservoir of Puumala virus (PUUV), a species in the genus Hantavirus. PUUV is the etiologic agent of nephropathia epidemica, a mild form of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome.

Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome in Traveler Returning from Nepal to Spain
Most human hantavirus infections occur in Asia, but some cases have been described in Europe in travelers returning from Asia. We describe a case of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome in a previously healthy traveler occurring shortly after he returned to ...
