| Abstrakt: | Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome remains an uncommon yet emerging viral zoonosis that causes respiratory failure and hemodynamic instability in children and adolescents. Due to its acutely progressive course and high mortality rate, clinicians treating hantavirus pulmonary syndrome should understand its epidemiologic risk factors, clinical syndrome and radiographic findings. We present a case of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome in a 14-year-old female from North Dakota who survived the infection without sequelae. Competing Interests: A.D.H. and D.F. have no conflicts of interest or disclosures. M.A.S. has no conflicts of interest but discloses research funding from the NIH, CDC, Cepheid, Merck and Pfizer, which are unrelated to the subject, and royalties from Up-To-Date, which are also unrelated.
