[Rotaviruses--causes of minor epidemics of diarrheal diseases in the neonatal department of the Pediatric Clinic in Sarajevo].
A rotavirus epidemic took place at the above mentioned department (8. V 1987 until 19. VI 1987). During that period, 36 newborn infants were treated for rotaviral symptoms and they all had their stools checked for rotaviruses or their antigen. Rotaviruses were found by 17 patients (47.2%). As a lab method we used immunoelectrophoresis. 20 patient of the overall number of 36 were boys and 16 were girls. Stool samples showed rotaviruses in 9 boys (45%) and 8 girls (50%). The age of patients was 3 to 34 days. After 1-14 days all children were well.
