Abstract
A patient with fever, myalgias, and acute polyarthritis in whom echovirus 9 was isolated from throat and rectal swab specimens is described. All symptoms resolved spontaneously over a one week period except for the arthritis which required three months for complete recovery. A mildly inflammatory synovial fluid and histologic picture were observed. Attempts to isolate the virus from synovial fluid and synovium during acute illness were unsuccessful.This publication has 22 references indexed in Scilit:
