Abstract

Acute hepatitis such as hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus, parvovirus, Ebstein-Barr virus can occur with many viruses. Acute hepatitis due to hepatitis A virus in children is a common, usually self-limiting disease with recovery. Although other viral hepatitis forms occur,with extra hepatic autoimmune findings, acute hepatitis A virus infections are rare. Secondary immune thrombocytopenia is observed frequently in hepatitis B and C infections but, have rarely been reported as a sign of acute hepatitis A infection. Secondary immune thrombocytopenia was the only finding in a subicteric 4 year old girl presenting with acute hepatitis A infection. (J Pediatr Inf 2011; 5: 80-2)

Özet

Akut hepatitler; Hepatit B virüsü, Hepatit C virüsü, Parvovirus, Ebstein-Barr virüsü gibi birçok virüs ile oluşabilmektedir. Hepatit A virüsüne bağlı akut hepatit, çocukluk çağında sık görülen, genellikle kendini sınırlayan ve iyileşen bir hastalıktır. Diğer viral hepatitlerde görülmesine rağmen, Hepatit A virüsüne bağlı akut hepatitte extrahepatik otoimmun bulgular nadirdir. Sekonder immun trombositopeni, Hepatit B ve C enfeksiyonlarında sık görülürken, akut hepatit A enfeksiyonu bulgusu olarak nadiren bildirilmiştir. Sekonder immun trombositopeninin tek bulgu olduğu subikterik akut hepatit A enfeksiyonlu 4 yaşında kız olgu sunulmuştur. (J Pediatr Inf 2011; 5: 80-2)
