Epstein-Barr Virus: Its Site of Persistence and Its Role in the Development of Carcinomas

  • Conference paper
Modern Trends in Human Leukemia IV

Part of the book series: Haematology and Blood Transfusion / Hämatologie und Bluttransfusion ((HAEMATOLOGY,volume 26))

Abstract

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) causes in man infectious mononucleosis as a “primary” disease. Burkitt’s Lymphoma and Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma may be considered as “secondary” diseases developing only in persons with long preceeding EBV infection.
