Reye syndrome  

Définition(s)

  • Reye syndrome is a neurological (brain) and hepatic (liver) dysfunction disorder most often seen in children treated with aspirin just after recovery from a viral infection. First recognized in the early 1960s, the cause of Reye syndrome has yet to be identified; however, it is believed that the use of aspirin and preceding viral illness are precipitating factors.
