Diarrheal disease is one of the most common causes of an acute examination and hospitalisation of a child. Portion of a viral etiology of

intestinal diseases is increasing in connection with an improvement of social and economical conditions. The most common viral agents

are rotaviruses, caliciviruses, adenoviruses and astroviruses, but also other viruses cause an intestinal disease. The most severe clinical

course is expected from the rotaviral and noroviral infection. The dehydratation, which could be less or more severe, often complicated the

infection. The treatment is symptomatic. The most important role for the prevention of rotavirus disease is played by the vaccination.

Keywords: viral gastroenteritis, rotavirus, calicivirus, vaccination
