Abstract
The clinical course of enteropathogenic (EPEC) and enteroinvasive escherichiosis (EIEC) in children was studied and their comparative characteristics were carried out. We examined 82 sick children with early age Escherichiosis, caused in 28 byenteroinvasive, in 54 with enteropathogenic strains. In children with EPEC, secretory diarrhea was observed, and EIEC —colitis. A more pronounced manifestation of intoxication syndrome was observed in children with EPEC. The manifestations of diarrheal syndrome and electrolyte disturbances, assessed by the degree of dehydration, are more typical for children with EPEC. If in children with EPEC such complications as hypovolemic shock and acute renal failure were encountered, then in children with EIEC in the form of complications of infectious toxic shock, neurotoxicosis and disseminated intravascular coagulation.
