Infectious Monocleosis

Infectious mononucleosis (also known as Pfeiffer's disease, or as mono in the U.S. and more commonly known as glandular fever in other English-speaking countries) is an infectious, viral disease which most commonly occurs in adolescents and young adults. It is characterized by fever, sore throat and fatigue, along with several other possible signs and symptoms. It is primarily diagnosed by observation of symptoms, but suspicion can be confirmed by several diagnostic tests. It was first described as an infectious process by Emil Pfeiffer in 1889.
