Batı Nil Virus’u; insanlar, atlar, kuşlar ve vahşi hayvanlarda çeşitli nörolojik semptomlara neden olan ve vektörlerle
(artropodlarla) bulaşan Flaviviridae ailesine mensup zoonoz bir arbovirusdur. Afrika, Asya ve Güney Avrupa’da
uzun süredir bilinen hastalık, son zamanlarda insanlarda ve tek tırnaklılarda ensefalit vakası ile seyreden hastalık
tablosuna sebep olmaktadır. Küresel ısınma sonucu oluşan iklim değişiklikleri ile bu virusun taşıyıcısı olan vektörlerin
de yaşam alanları değişmiş ve yaygınlıkları artmıştır. Bu derlemede; virusun etiyolojisi, dünyadaki yaygınlığı,
patogenezi, belirtileri, tanı yöntemleri ve mücadelesi ile ilgili konular ele alınmıştır.

West Nile Virus infection

Öz

West Nile Virus; is a zoonosis arbovirus which belongs to Flaviviridae family and causes different neurological
symptoms in humans, horses, birds and wild animals and spreads via arthropods. As a known disease in Africa,
Asia and South Europe for a while, West Nile causes encephalitis in equids and humans recently. In consequence of
climate changes which is a result of global warming, living area of vectors are changed and prevalence of vectors is
increased. In this article, etiology, prevalence, pathogenesis, symptoms and diagnostic techniques of the virus and
combating are discussed.
