In neonates, herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections can lead to severe diseases associated with high mortality. We report a 6-day-old girl who developed clinical signs of fulminant hepatic failure accompanied by infectious-toxic shock and disseminated coagulopathy secondary to HSV type 1 (HSV-1) infection. The diagnosis was performed postmortem by demonstration of HSV-1 DNA in liver tissue as well as by retrospective detection of HSV-specific antibodies.
在新生儿中,单纯疱疹病毒(HSV)感染可导致与高死亡率相关的严重疾病。我们报告一名6日龄女婴,她出现了暴发性肝衰竭的临床症状,伴有感染性中毒性休克和继发于1型单纯疱疹病毒(HSV-1)感染的弥散性凝血障碍。诊断是在死后通过在肝组织中检测到HSV-1 DNA以及回顾性检测HSV特异性抗体来进行的。
