Abstract

Purpose of Review

Mpox, formerly known as monkeypox, is a zoonotic illness caused by a virus that is part of the Orthopoxvirus family. Originally identified in humans in the Democratic Republic of Congo in 1970, the disease has been endemic in central African nations. In 2022, an outbreak of Monkeypox warranted a declaration by the World Health Organization (WHO) that the virus was a Public Health Emergency of International Concern. Prior literature documented the dermatological manifestations of the disease, but fewer papers have described and navigated the complexities of mpox gastrointestinal manifestations. We aim to update the current literature on the gastrointestinal (GI) manifestations of mpox, through a review of the literature via PubMed search for English language papers reporting GI manifestations of the virus.

Recent Findings

Individual reports of symptomatic manifestations of mpox have been reported. Upper and lower GI symptoms have been described and, in multiple cases, required multidisciplinary team care to successfully treat the patients.

Summary

GI manifestations of mpox disease are reported in a variety of severities and, in some instances, may require multidisciplinary management.

MPox 的胃肠道表现

审查目的天花，原名猴痘，是由一种属于正痘病毒科的病毒引起的人畜共患疾病。该病最初于 1970 年在刚果民主共和国的人类身上发现，之后一直在非洲中部国家流行。2022 年，猴痘疫情爆发，世界卫生组织（WHO）宣布该病毒为国际关注的突发公共卫生事件。以前的文献记录了该疾病的皮肤病表现，但较少文献描述和介绍猴痘胃肠道表现的复杂性。我们旨在通过在 PubMed 上检索报告该病毒胃肠道表现的英文文献，对当前有关水痘胃肠道表现的文献进行更新。上消化道和下消化道症状均有描述，在多个病例中，需要多学科团队护理才能成功治疗患者。总结据报道，水痘疾病的消化道表现有多种严重程度，在某些情况下可能需要多学科管理。

期刊介绍： This journal intends to provide clear, insightful, balanced contributions by international experts that review the most important, recently published clinical findings related to the diagnosis, treatment, management, and prevention of infectious disease. We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas, such as HIV/AIDS, sexually transmitted diseases, tropical and travel medicine, and urinary tract infections. Section Editors, in turn, select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists.
