Abstract

This case report describes a fiveyear- old girl with transfusion transmitted virus hepatitis. The disease was clinically characterized with malaise and fatigue, and serum transaminase levels were high. Microbiological diagnosis was made with PCR method by detecting viral DNA. The signs and symptoms disappeared in seven months and the patient recovered without any medical treatment.

Özet

Bu yazıda 'transfüzyon transmited virüs' hepatiti saptanan beş yaşında bir kız çocuğu sunulmuştur. Hastalık, klinik olarak halsizlik ve yorgunluk ile karakterize idi ve yapılan incelemelerde hastanın serum transaminaz düzeyleri yüksek olarak saptandı. Mikrobiyolojik tanı, PCR yöntemi ile virüs DNA'sı saptanarak kondu. Belirti ve bulgular yedi ay içerisinde kayboldu ve olgumuz herhangi bir tedavi uygulanmadan iyileşti.
