BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE
In the last few years, outbreaks of an apparently specific dermatosis occurred during the months of late summer and early autumn in our locality. Our aim in this study was to reveal the underlying etiology of this dermatosis.
SUBJECTS AND METHODS
Sixty patients with the disease were studied clinically, epidemiologically, histopathologically, and ultrastructurally.
RESULTS
The results of all methods suggest that the dermatosis is most probably a human cowpox infection. Electron microscopy showed unenveloped cowpox virons.
CONCLUSIONS
This apparently specific dermatosis is due to human cowpox infection. Future investigations will be needed to better define this important zoonosis frequently passed by cats to humans and carried by rodents.
背景与目的
在过去几年中，我们当地在夏末秋初的几个月里出现了一种明显特定的皮肤病疫情。本研究的目的是揭示这种皮肤病的潜在病因。
研究对象与方法
对60例该疾病患者进行了临床、流行病学、组织病理学和超微结构研究。
结果
所有方法的结果表明，这种皮肤病很可能是人类牛痘感染。电子显微镜显示无包膜的牛痘病毒粒子。
结论
这种明显特定的皮肤病是由人类牛痘感染引起的。未来需要进行进一步调查，以更好地界定这种重要的人畜共患病，它经常由猫传染给人类并由啮齿动物携带。
