  • Title: [Familiar and new aspects of Epstein-Barr virus infection].
    Author: Nadal D.
    Journal: Ther Umsch; 1998 Jan; 55(1):52-6. PubMed ID: 9492619.
    Abstract:
    The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) persists after primoinfection in the human host. Over 90% of the adult population carries EBV, which is mainly acquired during childhood or adolescence. The full-blown clinical picture is infectious mononucleosis. Complications are rare but manifold. Symptomatic treatment is sufficient in most instances. Tumors associated with EBV represent a problem of medical relevance especially in the immunocompromised.
