Abstract: Hantavirus infections are emerging zoonoses. In Asia, the hantavirus commonly manifests as haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS), apparent with fever, thrombocytopenia and acute kidney injury. There are a few cases with the atypical clinical course with cardiopulmonary symptoms in Asia including Sri Lanka. Here, we report a case of hantavirus infection with an atypical cardiopulmonary syndrome-like illness with serological evidence of the Puumala/Puumala-like virus.
