  • Title: [Hantaan virus infections as a cause of acute kidney failure. 3 cases in West Germany].
    Author: Gärtner L, Emmerich P, Schmitz H.
    Journal: Dtsch Med Wochenschr; 1988 Jun 10; 113(23):937-40. PubMed ID: 2897900.
    Abstract:
    Three cases of Hantaan virus infection (Korean haemorrhagic fever) leading to acute renal failure are described. All three had mild haemorrhagic fever with a renal syndrome. It had started with acute fever followed by oliguria, proteinuria and microhaematuria (in two patients) in the further course of the disease, as well as urea and creatinine retention. One patient needed to be dialysed twice. Hantaan virus-specific IgG antibodies were demonstrated in all three patients; one also had IgM antibodies.
