麻疹被传统地认为是儿童的传染病。但近数年来由于麻疹疫苗的广泛应用,儿童麻疹的发病率正在明显地下降,而成人麻疹的相对发病率却在逐渐地增高,并已日益成为重要的传染源,传播到儿童机构中去,因而具有显著的流行病学的意义。成人麻疹显然是当前和未来的一个重要问题。为探讨我院成人麻疹的某些临床特点,作者将1959年1月至1984年3月25年间住院确诊为成人麻疹的23例做一扼要分析。本文的诊断依据:①有麻疹典型的发病经过;②有典型的出疹顺序;③有与麻疹相 Measles is traditionally considered a child’s infectious disease. However, the incidence of measles in children is apparently declining due to the wide application of measles vaccine in recent years. However, the relative incidence of adult measles is gradually increasing and has become an increasingly important source of infection spread to children’s institutions. Thus has a significant epidemiological significance. Adult measles is clearly an important issue now and in the future. To explore some of the clinical features of adult measles in our hospital, the authors did a brief analysis of 23 hospitalized adults diagnosed with measles in the hospital from January 1959 to March 1984. The diagnosis of this article based on: ① have a typical onset of measles; ② a typical sequence of rash; ③ and measles phase
