A 52-year-old man was admitted to our hospital for fever, jaundice, and general malaise. Laboratory data revealed elevated serum liver enzyme levels (AST 2377IU/L, ALT 2756IU/L) and bilirubin (T-Bil 3.7 mg/dl). Blood count showed a marked decrease of platelets (2.0 x 10(4)/microl). Serological and virological analysis showed positive results for HEV IgM and HEV RNA, indicating a diagnosis of acute hepatitis E. The serum ferritin level was also markedly elevated (23200 ng/ml). A diagnosis of virus associated hemophagocytic syndrome (VAHS) was strongly suggested. This is the first report of hepatitis E most likely accompanied by VAHS.
一名52岁男性因发热、黄疸和全身不适入住我院。实验室检查数据显示血清肝酶水平升高(谷草转氨酶2377IU/L,谷丙转氨酶2756IU/L)以及胆红素升高(总胆红素3.7mg/dl)。血常规显示血小板显著减少(2.0×10⁴/微升)。血清学和病毒学分析显示戊型肝炎病毒IgM和戊型肝炎病毒RNA呈阳性,提示急性戊型肝炎诊断。血清铁蛋白水平也显著升高(23200ng/ml)。强烈提示诊断为病毒相关性噬血细胞综合征(VAHS)。这是首例极有可能伴有VAHS的戊型肝炎报告。
