Abstract:
A study of one case of herpes simplex hepatitis in an adult woman is presented. The clinical feature and laboratory findings were typical for acute hepatitis in a febrile patient without herpetic mucocutaneous lesions. The evidence of high IgM antibody titer in serum against herpes simplex virus and confirmation of the herpes simplex virus hepatitis by immunofluorescent microscopy after liver biopsy helped us establish the diagnosis. After 3-months the patient recovered.
