Complications of rotavirus infection in infants
- Klinika infekčních nemocí FN a LF v Hradci Králové
Rotavirus infections remain to be a substantial problem of pediatrics due to their frequency and serious clinical course. The case report
of a ten-month-old infant with rapid development of mineral dysbalance and neurological symptoms is presented. The case illustrates
the risks of the disease even in condition of an early medical intervention. Although the vaccination against rotavirus represents an
efficacious solution, it is still used in an insufficient way.
