  • Title: Fatal neonatal myocarditis caused by a recombinant human enterovirus-B variant.
    Author: Krogstad P, Hammon R, Halnon N, Whitton JL.
    Journal: Pediatr Infect Dis J; 2008 Jul; 27(7):668-9. PubMed ID: 18536618.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of fatal myocarditis in a newborn infant who was infected with a human enterovirus detected by throat culture and RT-PCR for viral RNA in plasma. Whole genome sequence analysis revealed the virus to be a genomic chimera that likely arose from recombination between coxsackievirus B3 and two recently identified enteroviruses, EV 86 and EV97.
