Asymptomatic infection with EB virus.
Evidence of asymptomatic EB virus infection was sought in healthy medical students and nurses following the observation that 1.4% possessed heterophile antibodies. The proportion of subjects with EB virus antibodies rose with age and there was evidence of recent infection in 19%. Smooth muscle antibodies were detected in 13 individuals and recent infection with EB virus was probable in six of t...
متن کامل[Chronic active Epstein-Barr virus infection].
The ubiquitous Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), which establishes latency after primary infection, does not cause any symptomatic diseases as long as cellular immunity is intact. In apparently immunocompetent individuals, a chronic infection can develop, and this has been called as chronic active EBV infection (CAEBV). CAEBV is characterized by chronic or recurrent infectious mononucleosis-like sympto...
متن کاملA case of unilateral optic disc swelling with chronic active Epstein–Barr virus infection
Ocular complications of chronic active Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection have rarely been reported and are usually associated with systemic symptoms. We described a 17-year-old boy with unilateral optic disc swelling without any systemic symptoms at the initial onset. Antibody titers to EBV were markedly elevated. Treatment with immunosuppressants and corticosteroids dramatically relieved all ...
متن کاملA Case of Severe Chronic Active Epstein-Barr Virus Infection with T-cell lymphoproliferative Disorder
Chronic infection with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) without previous immunodeficiency or immuno-suppressive therapy is relatively rare. Severe chronic active EBV (SCAEBV) infection was reported for the first time in 1984 as 'chronic mononucleosis syndrome', and diagnostic criteria were proposed. It is characterized by clinical features including fever, severe hepatosplenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, he...
متن کاملA case of gastric cancer with heterogeneous components of EB virus (+)/TP53 (+) and EB virus (-)/TP53 (-).
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated gastric adenocarcinoma is a histological subtype of gastric adenocarcinoma, in which all of the carcinoma cells are basically positive for EBV-encoded small RNA (EBER) by in situ hybridization. Although its typical histology has some overlap with gastric carcinoma with lymphoid stroma, absence of massive lymphoid infiltrate is sometimes observed either in who...
