“…The different species of established adenoviruses found, i.e., members of subgenera A, B, and C, were in accordance with observations in previous studies (6,29). All these subgenera mainly infect infants and are associated with gastrointestinal disease (29,32). Species of subgenus C have been regarded as endemic and have also been considered to cause respiratory symptoms (6).…”

In a prospective 1-year study of acute infantile gastroenteritis, adenoviruses were detected in the stools or by seroconversions, or both, in 56 of 416 (13.5%) ill children. By use of DNA restriction enzyme analysis, enzyme immunoassay, and culture techniques, 33 of 56 (59%) adenovirus specimens were identified as enteric adenoviruses 40 and 41 (Ad4O and Ad4M). They were found as the sole recognizable cause of diarrhea in 30 of 416 (7.2%) ill children and in 0 of 200 controls. Three additional ill children had enteric adenoviruses as a part * Corresponding author.

Severe Illnesses Due to Adenovirus Type 7 in Children

Summary Four patients presenting a severe pneumonia due to adenovirus type 7 are reported. One of them died, and intranuclear inclusion bodies characteristic for the illness were found. In infants and small children, this infection might in addition give meningoencephalitic symptoms, hepatomegaly, vascular disorders and hemorrhagic tendency, as some of these patients demonstrated. Intravascular coagulation initiated by the virus infection could explain several of the symptoms and signs in such serious cases.

“…Attempts at virus isolation from stool specimens (taken as early as possible after admission) were made only in cases displaying serologic reactions against adenovirus. The technique employed is described elsewhere (22). Bacterial cultures were made according to customary technique on the day of admission and repeated on the second, fifth, and tenth days as a minimum schedule.…”
