Enteroviruses and Parechoviruses: Echoviruses, Coxsackieviruses, and Others

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Viral Infections of Humans

Abstract

Enteroviruses (family Picornaviridae) are ubiquitous human pathogens, with a wide range of clinical presentations, including asymptomatic infection, mild illness such as common colds and undifferentiated fever, febrile rash (hand, foot, and mouth disease, herpangina, Boston exanthem), conjunctivitis, aseptic meningitis, encephalitis, myocarditis, and acute flaccid paralysis. There are over 100 enterovirus types defined, traditionally by antigenic tests but more recently according to genome sequence criteria. The human parechoviruses were formerly classified as enteroviruses but now constitute their own genus in Picornaviridae; however, their spectrum of illness is essentially the same as that of the enteroviruses. The viruses are primarily transmitted by the fecal-oral and respiratory routes, with a distinct spring-to-fall seasonality in temperate climates.

The findings and conclusions in this report are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent the views of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
