A probable case of rotavirus exanthem
Abstract
A generalized maculopapular exanthem and signs of hepatitis developed in a 28-year-old man one week after his two sons had suffered from rotavirus gastroenteritis. The patient's serum contained rotavirus antibody at titers of 1:256 and 1:512. Other known causes of exanthemata were excluded by clinical and laboratory investigations. The epidemiologic evidence and the results of serological tests suggested that the rotavirus caused the patient's exanthem.
