Abstract
A 7-year-old boy developed fatal aplastic anaemia, 2 weeks after the first signs of infectious mononucleosis. Although some drugs were administered, infection with the Epstein-Barr virus, leading to infectious mononucleosis, is assumed to be the cause of this aplastic anaemia. Some mechanisms possibly leading to the aplasia are discussed.Keywords
