Abstract:
In four of studied children (age 3-12 yrs) with serologically confirmed infectious mononucleosis we found IgM antibodies to CMV. This can be explained by coincidence of both infections or by nonspecific stimulation of B lymphocytes in the course of mononucleosis. Disappearance of IgM antibodies to CMV after 3 months, and concomitant presence of IgG antibodies after 6 months suggests the former.
