Abstract
The EMC virus was found to infect and injure the femoral veins of newborn mice. EMC viral crystals were found in the adventitial fibroblasts of these veins. In view of the extensive damage observed in the extremely small amount of tissue examined electron microscopically, the extent of the viral phlebitis must have been considerable. The relationship of these findings to the pathogenesis of thrombophlebitis in man provokes interesting speculations.
