Abstract
However, the clinical presentation of MPX disease is sometimes aspecific and can mislead diagnosis.[[2]] We conducted a single centre retrospective study in Paris, France, to analyse MPX patients presenting with an erythematous maculopapular rash. Monkeypox (MPX) is a zoonotic disease caused by an I orthopoxvirus i usually causing self-limiting outbreaks in Africa. Of note, EBV blood PCR was performed in seven patients of the centre with MPX without a rash and found EBV replication in the seven cases. [Extracted from the article]
