Microorganisms Detected in Intussusception Cases and Controls in Children <3 Years in South Africa From 2013 to 2017.

ABSTRACT: A matched case-control evaluated infectious etiologies in children <3 years in post-rotavirus vaccine intussusception surveillance. Adenovirus and adenovirus types C, A, and B were detected more frequently in cases versus controls at statistically significant values. Wild-type rotavirus, rotavirus vaccine strains, and human herpesvirus were not associated with intussusception.
