07-SEPTEMBER-2008 03:17:44 - Mumps Mumps virus TEM micrograph of the mumps virus. TEM micrograph of the mumps virus. Virus classification Group: Group V -ssRNA Order: Mononegavirales Family: Paramyxoviridae Genus: Rubulavirus Type species Mumps virus For other uses of the word Mumps or MUMPS, see Mumps disambiguation. Mumps or epidemic parotitis is a viral disease of the human species. The word mumps originally meant to mumble, and came to be applied to the disease because of the side effects it causes. Prior to the development of vaccination and the introduction of a vaccine, it was a common childhood disease worldwide, and is still a significant threat to health in the third world.1 Painful swelling of the salivary glands classically the parotid gland is the most typical presentation.2 Painful testicular swelling and rash may also occur. The symptoms are generally not severe in children. In teenage males and men, complications such as infertility or subfertility are more common, although still rare in absolute terms.3,4,5 The disease is generally self-limited, running its course before receding, with no specific treatment apart from controlling the symptoms with painkillers.

It can occur on one side unilateral or both sides bilateral. Fever Headache Orchitis, referring to painful inflammation of the testicle.6 Males past puberty who develop mumps have a 30 percent risk of orchitis.7 Other symptoms of mumps can include sore face and/or ears and occasionally in more serious cases, loss of voice. Prodrome Fever and headache can occur already as prodromal symptoms of mumps, together with malaise and anorexia. Signs and tests A physical examination confirms the presence of the swollen glands. Usually the disease is diagnosed on clinical grounds and no confirmatory laboratory testing is needed. If there is uncertainty about the diagnosis, a test of saliva, or blood may be carried out; a newer diagnostic confirmation, using real-time nested polymerase chain reaction PCR technology, has also been developed 8. An estimated 20%-30% of cases are asymptomatic.9 Treatment There is no specific treatment for mumps. Symptoms may be relieved by the application of intermittent ice or heat to the affected neck area and by Acetaminophen/Paracetamol Tylenol for pain relief. Aspirin use is discouraged in young children because of studies showing an increased risk of Reye's syndrome.10 Warm salt water gargles, soft foods, and extra fluids may also help relieve symptoms. Patients are advised to avoid fruit juice or any acidic foods, since these stimulate the salivary glands, which can be painful. Prognosis Death is very unusual. The disease is self-limiting, and general outcome is good, even if other organs are involved. Mumps viral infections in adult males carries a 25% risk that the testes may become infected which in rare cases leads to sterility. After the illness, life-long immunity to mumps generally occurs. Complications Known complications of mumps include: Infection of other organ systems Sterility in men this is quite rare, and mostly occurs in older men Mild forms of meningitis rare, 40% of cases occur without parotid swelling Encephalitis very rare, rarely fatal Profound 91 dB or more but rare sensorineural hearing loss, uni- or bilateral Pancreatitis manifesting as abdominal pain and vomiting Oophoritis inflammation of ovaries but fertility is rarely affected. Prevention The most common preventative measure against mumps is immunization with a mumps vaccine. The vaccine may be given separately or as part of the MMR immunization vaccine which also protects against measles and rubella. In the US, MMR is now being supplanted by MMRV, which adds protection against chickenpox. The WHO World Health Organization recommends the use of mumps vaccines in all countries with well-functioning childhood vaccination programmes. In the United Kingdom it is routinely given to children at age 15 months. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends the routine administration of MMR vaccine at ages 12-15 months and at 4-6 years.11 In some locations, the vaccine is given again between 4 to 6 years of age, or between 11 and 12 years of age if not previously given. Efficacy of the vaccine depends on the strain of the vaccine, but is usually around 80%.12,13 The Jeryl Lynn strain is most commonly used in developed countries, but has been shown to have reduced efficacy in epidemic situations. The Leningrad-Zagreb strain is commonly used in developing countries, but appears to have superior efficacy in epidemic situations.14 Some anti-vaccine activists protest against the administration of a vaccine against mumps, claiming that the attenuated vaccine strain is harmful, and/or that the wild disease is beneficial. Disagreeing, the WHO, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the American Academy of Family Physicians, the British Medical Association and the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain currently recommend routine vaccination of children against mumps. The British Medical Association and Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain had previously recommended against general mumps vaccination, changing that recommendation in 1987. In 1988 it became United Kingdom government policy to introduce mass child mumps vaccination programmes with the MMR vaccine, and MMR vaccine is now routinely administered in the UK. Before the introduction of the mumps vaccine, the mumps virus was the leading cause of viral meningoencephalitis in the United States. However, encephalitis occurs rarely less than 2 per 100,000.15 In one of the largest studies in the literature, the most common symptoms of mumps meningoencephalitis were found to be fever 97%, vomiting 94% and headache 88.8%.16 The mumps vaccine was introduced into the United States in December 1967: since its introduction there has been a steady decrease in the incidence of mumps and mumps virus infection. There were 151,209 cases of mumps reported in 1968. Since 2001, the case average was only 265 per year, excluding an outbreak of 6000 cases in 2006 attributed largely to university contagion in young adults.1718 See also List of modern mumps outbreaks References ^ Kasper DL, Braunwald E, Fauci AS, Hauser SL, Longo DL, Jameson JL, Isselbacher KJ, Eds. 2004.
