Sažetak

Although we have been familiar with the West Nile virus (WNV) for the last 80 years more intense research has been conducted in the past fifteen years, just after the huge central nervous system infection outbreak. WNV is a member of the Flaviviridae family, genus Flavvirus. Though WNV consists of a single serotype, genetically it can be divided in at least eight lineages where lineages 1, 2 and 5 are medically the most important ones. The virus originated from Africa and spread worldwide. Birds are natural reservoirs of the virus and mosquitoes are their vectors. The most usual transmission to humans is the mosquito bite but the virus can also be transmitted via blood transfusion or solid organ transplantation. After 3 –14 days of the incubation period, usually an asymptomatic or mild febrile disease occurs while a neuroinvasive disease develops in a rather small number of patients. Symptomatic therapy is the basis for treatment, however prolonged recovery and neurological sequalae are sometimes seen as well.
