ABSTRACT
Primary infections with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) often lead to infectious mononucleosis with sore throat, lymphadenopathy and hepatitis, especially in youngsters. However, neurological complications can occur even in immunocompetent individuals. We report two case stories of two middle-aged men with primary EBV infections who presented severe neurological manifestations of the disease, but both fully recovered. Hepatitis was present in both cases, but not the classical mononucleosis. The cases stress that clinicians should be aware of these rare courses of primary EBV infections.
