Özet
17 years old male patient had applied to the primary care center for his complaints; fever, malaise and headache, and was he was investigated for causes thrombocytopenia of after thrombocytopenia had been detected in the workup. He had hyperaemia in oropharynx, 39°C fever, noti-caable malaise, thrombocytopenia and renal failure at admittance to our clinic. No atypic cell was seen in peripheral blood smear of the patient. Laboratory tests for parvovirus, cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), brucella agglutination and gruber widal test and markers for hepatitis were examined and the results were negative. A detailed patient history showed that we had informed that the patient had burned dead mice bodies. Serolohical investigation showed that IgG and IgM antibodies were positive in both Biot Analysis and indirect immunofluo-rescence assay (IFA).We observed a hantavirus infection causing haem-orrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and correspondingly applied symptomatic treatment. © 2018 by Pediatric.
