Abstract
ADENOVIRUSES have been associated with a wide variety of clinical entities in man, including respiratory diseases, ocular infections, rashes, gastroenteritis and, less commonly, intussusceptions, mesenteric adenitis, myocarditis, nephritis, encephalitis and swelling and cyanosis of the hands and feet in infants, leading to gangrene.1 A number of different adenovirus serotypes have been associated with conjunctivitis (particularly follicular conjunctivitis) without keratitis, including Types 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 15, 16, 17, 20 and 22. In keratoconjunctivitis, however, only Types 3, 8 and 9 have been associated with cases in human beings. This report describes the isolation and identification . . .Keywords
