摘要
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. Copyright © 1969, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved
