Abstract

Human metapneumovirus is one of the most common viruses which cause lower respiratory tract infection in children, throughout the world. It was first isolated from children who had acute respiratory illness in 2001. It usually infects children younger than five years old. Clinical features are mostly cough, rinitis, high fever and wheezing. Herein we report a fifty-days-old infant who presented with a clinical picture similar to whooping cough and whose respiratory polymerase chain reaction test resulted as Human metapneumovirus and culture for pertussis resulted as negative. In this case, we want to emphasize that, Human metapneumovirus can cause pertussis-like illness in children.

Özet

İnsan metapnömovirüsü, tüm dünyada, çocuklarda alt solunum yolu enfeksiyonlarına yol açan en sık virüslerden biridir. İlk kez 2001 yılında akut respiratuvar hastalığı olan çocuklarda saptanmıştır. Sıklıkla beş yaşından küçük çocukları etkiler. Klinik özellikler sıklıkla öksürük, burun akıntısı, yüksek ateş ve hışıltı şeklindedir. Burada iç çekme ve öksürük yakınmaları ile başvuran ve solunum yolu viral polimeraz zincir reaksiyonu insan metapnömovirüsü olarak sonuçlanan ve boğmaca kültüründe üreme olmayan 50 günlük bir bebek olgu sunduk. Bu olgu ile insan metapnömovirüsünün çocuklarda boğmaca benzeri hastalığa yol açabileceğini vurgulamak istedik.
