Abstract:

Case Report: Some viruses have been reported to cause respiratory and gastroenteric infections simultaneously. In this case we present isolation of human respiratory virus (RSV) type B from diarrheal sample of a 12 months' child with acute gastroenteritis. Results: The results indicated the presence of RSV subtype B genome in all three stool samples. Moreover, no sign of co-infections with other enteropathogenic agents reported. Conclusion: It could be a simple shedding of virus through gastroenteric system. However, we could not deny the possible role of RSV in the acute intestinal infection.
