ABSTRACT:
Human Parvovirus B19 (B19V) destroys erythroid precursor cells, causing a wide range of clinical conditions, from a benign self-limiting exanthematous disease to severe and fatal clinical manifestations. This study aimed to describe the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of patients infected with B19V in Manaus, Amazonas, during periods of high dengue incidence. Clinical and demographic data from each patient who tested positive for B19V were analyzed using Excel software. Results: A total of 129 patients of both sexes and all age groups were infected with B19V, with a higher frequency among individuals aged 18–50 years, presenting clinical manifestations similar to those of other viral infections. However, B19V was detected in samples from an adult hospitalized patient with clinical suspicion of dengue and from an HIV-positive patient; both patients died. All urban areas of the city showed cases of B19V infection, with only three cases identified in rural areas. The inclusion of B19V in the differential diagnosis may contribute to appropriate patient management and reduce viral transmission among susceptible groups, preventing severe and fatal cases.
