Abstract		The genus Enterovirus is a large group of viruses belonging to the family Picornaviridae. They have a worldwide distribution, cause a wide spectrum of disease and a common cause of central nervous system disease. Viral culture and serology usually provide only retrospective evidence of viral infection, which has usually no influence on the acute management of patients. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with its speed and high sensitivity is the method of choice in the laboratory diagnosis of enteroviral infections.
