ABSTRACT
Objective. We standardized the RT-PCR panviral CSF and
determined its applicability in detecting acute enterovirus
infection in the central nervous system in children under 15
years.
Material and methods. RT-PCR was performed
directly in CSF samples of 10 pediatric patients with suspected
CNS infection and 9, with different conditions of the central
nervous system.
Results. 80% (8/10) of RT-PCR samples
were positive for enterovirus in patients with suspected CNS
infection and no sample was positive in patients with different
ailments.
Conclusions. Since enteroviruses are among the
main etiologies of pediatric encephalitis, RT-PCR could be
particularly useful for rapid detection in CSF.
