Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome in the Primorsko-goranska county, Croatia in 2002
Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) is well known zoonotic disease, which is endemic in many continental parts of Croatia. Sporadic cases are continously registered and epidemics periodically appeared in so-called "mouse years". The last HFRS outbreak in Croatia was recorded in 1995. In 2002. year, for the first time HFRS occurred as an epidemic in Primorsko- Goranska county. The patients, who had been hospitalized at the Clinic for Infectious Diseases and Clinic if Internal Medicine, in Rijeka encountered mostly mild or moderate clinical picture. Using serological tests and PCR analysis we revealed that in this region Puumala virus caused HFRS in majority of cases. For now, in only one patient Dobrava virus was detected. Furher analysis are in process for better determination of genetic characteristics of hantaviruses, which caused HFRS in Primorsko-Goranska county, as well as characteristicsof clinical picture.
