OBJECTIVE: To report two previously healthy children with a life-threatening course of human herpes virus type 6 (HHV-6) infection and prolonged pediatric intensive care treatment. DESIGN: Case reports. SETTING: A 16 bed pediatric intensive care unit at a tertiary care children's hospital. PATIENTS: Two children with life-threatening HHV-6 disease. INTERVENTIONS: Both children were mechanically ventilated because of respiratory failure. A detailed viral and immunologic workup was performed and treatment with antiviral medication started. MEASUREMENTS: Polymerase chain reaction assays of plasma, cerebrospinal fluid, bronchoalveolar lavage, and lung biopsies yielded HHV-6 in both patients. Immunophenotyping and lymphocyte stimulation tests wi...
