title: [Outbreak of hand, foot and mouth disease in a day-nursery. A new clinical form? (author's transl)].
abstract: Ten cases of vesicular eruption affecting primarily the hands (4/10) and feet (6/10) occurred in a day-nursery for infants. An enterovirus related to coxsackie A 16 virus was isolated from two vesicular fluids and nine stools. The fact that the outbreak took place in the winter, the rarity of pharyngeal lesions (2/10), the high incidence of foot lesions and the presence of listlessness as only associated symptom lead to a discussion of the relationship between this small epidemic and true hand, foot and mouth disease.
