Abstract
Trichodysplasia spinulosa-associated polyomavirus (TSV) was identified in a seven-month-old girl with myocarditis. The number of TSV genomes detected was higher in the heart than in the other organs. The full-length TSV genome was cloned from the heart. This suggests a possible role of TSV infection in the pathogenesis of myocarditis in infants.Entities:
