Abstract

Introduction: the onset of recurrent mumps occurs with high frequency toward school age, tending to spontaneously remit just before puberty or adolescence.

Objective: to characterize the behavior of recurrent mumps in pediatric patients treated at Pepe Portilla Provincial Pediatric Hospital during 2019.

Methods: a descriptive, longitudinal and retrospective observational study was conducted in patients with recurrent parotitis during 2019. The target group consisted of 47 patients, choosing 29 through a simple random sampling. Data were collected by means of a data collection form. Descriptive statistics was applied, respecting the bioethical principles.

Results: the age group from 1 to 5 years old (44, 8 %) and male sex prevailed (55, 2 %) with mild (41, 4 %) and moderate (37, 9 %) recurrent mumps and unilateral affectations (89, 7%); 44,8 % of patients presented between 2 and 5 recurrent events per year. As personal pathological history, it was found predominance of patients without previous history (48, 3 %), allergic and respiratory diseases (34, 4 %); 58, 6 % of patients were from urban areas. As for the time of year recurrences, the winter season was found to be the predominant one (55, 2 %).

Conclusions: Male preschoolers between 1 and 5 years old, with allergic and respiratory history, coming from urban populations were prone to develop recurrent parotitis patterns. Unilateral affectations, as well as mild patterns were common.
