Etude Une Santé d'un cas d'encéphalite fatale causée par le virus Pigeon Paramyxovirus Type 1, France
Résumé
Pigeon paramyxovirus type 1 (PPMV-1) is a genotype of avian paramyxovirus type 1 that uses species of the family Columbidae as reservoir species. We report fatal PPMV-1 encephalitis in a human without immunosuppression or travel history outside metropolitan France. Postmortem analyses revealed PPMV-1 in tissues, underscoring that physicians should consider this potential diagnosis.
