Background:Rotavirus and enteric Adenovirus are the most common agents of acute gastroenteritis.It was aimed to determine the frequency of rotavirus and enteric adenovirus among  patients admitted to our hosp ital with acute gastroenteritis.

Method:A  total  of 4230  outpatients  with  acute  gastroenteritis were  enrolled  in  this  study.Rotavirus  and enteric  Adenovirus  antigens  were  detected  in  stool  samples  of  the  patients  by immunochromatographic method  (Rota-Adeno  Virus  Combo  Rapid  Test,  DIMA  GmbH,  Germany).  Clinical  data were  obtained  from patient records retrospectively.

Results:Rotavirus antigen was detected in 426 (10,1%) stool sample.Of the Rotavirus-infected patients, 297 (69,7%) were  younger  than  2  years.There  was  a  significant  differe nce(p0.05) between genders in terms of rotavirus infection. Enteric Adenovirus antigen was detected in stool samples of 170(4%) patients. Of the Adenovirus-infected  patents,  96(56,5%)  were  male,  74(43,5%)were  female  and  88(51,8%)  were  younger  than  2  yearsold. There was no significant difference between genders and ages.

Conclusion:Rotavirus  should  be  considered  in  diarrhea  of  children  under  2  years.    Rapid  and  properly diagnosis  of  viral  gastroenteritis  is crucial  in  prediction  of  clinical  implications  and  reduction  of unnecessary antibiotic usage.
