  • Title: [Outbreak of nephropathiaepidemica in Jutland, Denmark].
    Author: Ystrøm IK, Kristensen LH, Jensen TG, Randers E.
    Journal: Ugeskr Laeger; 2021 Jan 11; 183(2):. PubMed ID: 33491638.
    Abstract:
    In Denmark, most cases of nephropathia epidemica (NE) occur on the island of Funen and are caused by the transmission of Puumala hantavirus to humans from the bank vole. This is a case report comprising four cases of NE occurring in close vicinity to Silkeborg, Jutland, where the disease is not usually seen. NE is characterised by increased vascular permeability, and patients present with flu-like symptoms progressing to acute kidney injury. When NE occurs in areas where it has not traditionally been endemic, awareness of the disease is important to ensure proper diagnosis.
