Case report and molecular analysis of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis in a South African Child.

E Vardas1, P M Leary, J Yeats, W Badrodien, S Kreis.   

Abstract

This is the first case of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis from South Africa in which the molecular characteristics of the causative measles virus were examined. The virus found is classified as genotype D3, which has not previously been found in Africa and was last circulating in the United States before 1992.
