摘要
We present the clinical case of a 20-year-old male soldier who appeared in general good physical condition. He suffered from infectious mononucleosis caused by Epstein-Barr virus that had recurred 2 years after the first serologically documented episode. The detected splenomegaly persisted in the healthy young man, who otherwise showed no apparent immune deficiency. To our knowledge, this is an extremely rare condition.
