Abstract
Unusual Manifestation of Toscana Virus Infection, Spain
Highlights
Since 2003, we have routinely investigated Toscana virus (TOSV) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) specimens from patients with suspected viral meningitis and encephalitis by using cell culture and reverse transcription–PCR (RT-PCR) [3,4]
As part of a regional project (05/305, Consejería de Salud, Junta de Andalucía, Spain), we investigated TOSV in mild nonneurologic syndromes by detection of immunoglobulin (Ig) M against TOSV by using enzyme immunoassay (Diesse Diagnostica Senese S.p.A, Siena, Italy)
Lymphocytic pleocytosis, a normal glucose level, and elevated protein levels were observed in CSF samples taken during the 2-month period of hospitalization
