We identified Dobrava-Belgrade virus infection in Turkey (from a strain related to hantavirus strains from nearby countries) in a patient who had severe symptoms leading to panhypopituitarism, but no known risk for hantavirus. Our findings emphasize the need for increased awareness of hantaviruses in the region and assessment of symptomatic persons without known risk factors for infection.
我们在一名出现严重症状导致全垂体功能减退症的患者(感染的病毒株与来自周边国家的汉坦病毒株相关)身上鉴定出了多布拉瓦-贝尔格莱德病毒感染,但该患者没有已知的汉坦病毒感染风险。我们的发现强调了需要提高对该地区汉坦病毒的认识,并评估没有已知感染风险因素的有症状者。
