    Abstract:
    Reports on the clinical picture of primary infection with the human herpesvirus-7 (HHV-7) are scarce. A heterogenous population of 478 patients (1 month-14 years) was examined for the presence of an acute HHV-7 infection. A variety of clinical pictures can be observed during primary infection with HHV-7, such as exanthema subitum and mononucleosis-like syndrome. The authors describe in two children, for the first time, the presentation of HHV-7-infection as an acute exacerbation or relapse of a patient's chronic disease. The hematological changes for the respective clinical presentations during HHV-7 infection are reported.
