Human Viruses

Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) is estimated to infect more than 98% of adults worldwide and is one of the most common human viruses. Acute acalculous cholecystitis (AAC) of the gallbladder is an atypical complication of infectious mononucleosis caused by EBV. Conservative management has been described in the context of AAC caused by EBV. A surgical approach must be considered in the case of acute complications such as perforation or gallbladder gangrene. We present the case of a 10-year-old female patient with AAC due to infectious mononucleosis syndrome caused by primary EBV infection.

Uncertain Etiology

Infectious mononucleosis (IM) is a defined clinical syndrome, until recently regarded as of uncertain etiology affecting only a limited number of persons. The etiology of IM can now be ascribed correctly to primary infection with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), a member of the herpesvirus family. It is increasingly evident that primary infection with EBV may also induce a range of clinical responses from no detectable illness1 to a variety of disorders without the clinical or hematologic hallmarks of the IM syndrome.
