Infections by Epstein-Barr virus is the most common cause of infectious mononucleosis. We describe the diagnosis and different serological patterns, as well as its major complications related to the development of malignancies, lymphoproliferative disorders and autoimmune diseases. There is no effective treatment. Cytomegalovirus is the second cause of mononucleosis syndrome and the first of congenital infection in our environment. It has an high morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised patients, mainly solid organ transplants, bone marrow and coinfection by human immunodeficiency virus. Its treatment is based on antivirals, mainly ganciclovir and valganciclovir. We describe its management, adverse effects, new drugs and prophylaxis.
