Abstract Objectives This study aimed to compare the clinical features and laboratory tests of infectious mononucleosis (IM) hemophagocytic syndrome (HLH) caused by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in 1–3-year-old children explore risk factor HLH EBV (EBV-HLH). Methods The data 92 with infection admitted our hospital from 2011 2019 were collected; 61 cases diagnosed as EBV-IM, 31 EBV-HLH. subjects’ mani...

Acute infectious interstitial pneumonitis (IP) (Epstein Barr virus (EBV)-associated IP) in children has been most commonly associated with human immunodeficiency (HIV) infection and immunocompromised hosts. Here we report a case of EBV-associated cervical lymphadenopathy an immunocompetent child. Patient underwent extensive routine serologic workup which revealed positive polymerase chain react...

hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (hlh) is one of the complications of epstein-barr virus (ebv) infection. although the patients who have developed hlh following ebv have normal immune system, there are a few patients with ebv-induced immune deficiency who develop hlh as well. here, we describe the case of a 10-year-old girl with neurological complications caused by ebv-induced hlh. the patien...

we have analyzed paraffin sections from 55 patients with histologically confirmed hodgkin’s disease (hd) for the presence of epstein-barr virus (ebv) markers using in situ hybridization to detect the ebv-encoded rnas (ebers) and immunohistochemistry to identify latent membrane protein-1 (lmp1) expression. tissue specimens from 55 cases of hodgkin’s disease included 22-mixed cellularity (mc), 27...

Viral infections contribute a larger percentage of all human cancers. Epstein Barr virus (EBV) is type herpes with no clinical manifestation in majority individuals. However, when it occurs adulthood, causes benign lymph proliferative disease known as mononucleosis. This study investigated the molecular detection EBV co-infection among HIV positive women attending some selected hospitals Sokoto...

background: the association of epstein-barr virus (ebv) with burkitt’s lymphoma (bl) is variable in different geographic regions. in developing countries, the association of ebv with bl is regarded to be of an endemic-type in equatorial africa ( > 95%) and sporadic-type in the developed countries (15-30%). the purpose of this study is to assess the frequency of ebv infection in bl, in iran. the...
