Define accompaning disease with the following viruses
EBV (HHV-4)
(3 types)
- mononucleosis (monospot test +)

- Hodgkin lymphoma
Define accompaning disease with the following viruses
- CMV (HHV-5)
- what pt population is it seen in?
- Congenital defects (sightomegalovirus)
- infection in immunosuppressed pt (AIDS retinitis), especially transplant recipients
Define accompaning disease with the following viruses
- HHV-6
- HHV-7
- HHV-8
- roseola (exanthem subitum)
- less common cause of roseola
- causes Kaposi sarcoma
Pt presents with
Gingivostomatitis, heratoconjunctivitis, temporal lobe encephalitis (MCC of sporadic encephatlitis in US), herpes labialis,
- Define virus
- where is it latent
- how its transmitted
- HSV-1
- trigeminal ganglia
- Transmitted: respiratory secretions, saliva
Pt presents with
herpes genitalis, neonatal herpes.
- what is the virus
- its latent in what ganglia
- transmitted by what
- HSV-2
- sacral ganglia
- sexual contact, perinatally
Pt presents with
Mononucleosis. characterized by fever, hepatosplenomegaly, pharyngitis, and lymphadenopathy (especially posterior cervical nodes)
- what is the virus
- how is it transmitted
- what cells are infected
- how is it detected
- assoc w/ what 3 pathologies ‘Honey BuN’
- what is the virus: EBV (HHV-4)
- how is it transmitted: respiratory secretions and saliva, also called kissing disease since commonly seen in teens and young adults.
- what cells are infected: B-cells (In FA: atypical lymphoctes seen on peripheral blood smear are not infected B cells but rather reactive cytotoxic T cells)
- how is it detected: Monospot test: heterophile antibodies detected by agglutination of sheep or horse RBCs.
-
assoc w/ what 3 pathologies
- Hodgkn lymphoma
- Burkitt lymphoma
- Nasopharyngeal carcinoma
Pt presents with
congenital ifection, mononucleosis (- monospot) pneumonia, retinitis.
- Define infection
- What do infection cells have that is unique to this infection?
- transmission?
- CMV (HHV-5)
- Owl eyes
- Congenitally and by transfusion, sexual contact, saliva, urine, transplant
Pt presents with
High fevers for several days that can cause seizures, followed by diffuse macular rash
- what is the name of disease
- What is the virus that causes it
- How is it transmitted?
- Roseola
- HHV-6
- saliva
Pt presents with
a neoplasm of endothelial cells, Dark/violaceous flat adn nodular skin lesion, representing endothelial growths.
- What is the name of the discribed lesion
- What is the virus
- What pt pop is it seen in
- What other organs can it effect
- Transmission
- What is the name of the discribed lesion: Kaposi sarcoma
- **What is the virus: **HHV-8
- What pt pop is it seen in: HIV/AIDs and transplant popul
- What other organs can it effect: GI tract and lungs
- Transmission: sexual contact
Hepadnvirus
- Define the type of envelope and DNA structure
- what medical disease is assoc with it
- acute or chronic
- is there a vaccine avaliable
- is it a retrovirus or have a reverse transcriptase?
- Yes, partial and circular
-
HBV
- acute and chronic hepatitis
- Vaccine avalible- contains HBV surface antigen
- Not a retrovirus but has a reverse transcriptase
