This paper describes the first case of infection with a recently described novel bunyavirus, severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV), in Shanghai, China. The case is originally from Chizhou City, Anhui province within an endemic area for SFTSV. We describe the etiology, epidemiological characteristics, clinical diagnosis and treatment of this fatal case. This case is unique because major cause of death was renal failure, whereas other reported cases have been due to hemorrhage. The investigation and response to this case provides meaningful insight for the early and rapid diagnosis, treatment, prevention and control of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus in non-endemic regions in China and globally.
本文描述了首例在中国上海感染新型布尼亚病毒（发热伴血小板减少综合征病毒，SFTSV）的病例。该病例最初来自安徽省池州市，该地为 SFTSV 的流行区。我们描述了这例致命病例的病因、流行病学特征、临床诊断和治疗。该病例的独特之处在于主要死亡原因为肾衰竭，而其他报告的病例则因出血导致。对该病例的调查和应对为中国和全球非流行地区发热伴血小板减少综合征病毒的早期、快速诊断、治疗、预防和控制提供了有意义的见解。
