One patient had primary HHV-7 infection and reactivated EBV infection. The other had primary HHV-7 and EBV infections. These cases indicated that HHV-7 is capable of inducing infectious mononucleosis-like illness. Multiple herpesvirus infection in one of the patients also suggests that interaction among herpesviruses can occur in vivo. The consequence of this interaction may have clinical implications.[SDGs]SDG3antigen antibody reaction; article; case report; disease association; epstein barr virus; female; human; human cell; human herpesvirus 7; human tissue; immunopathology; mononucleosis; preschool child; priority journal; syndrome delineation; virus expression; Child, Preschool; Female; Herpesviridae Infections; Herpesvirus 4, Human; Herpesvirus 7, Human; Humans; Infant; Infectious Mononucleosis; Virus ActivationMononucleosis syndrome and coincidental human herpesvirus-7 and Epstein-Barr virus infectionjournal article10.1136/adc.78.5.47996591002-s2.0-0031808575
