Acute hepatitis and hepatic encephalopathy are rare manifestations of dengue haemorrhagic fever (DHF). We report 4 children aged 8 months to 3 y who presented with severe hepatic dysfunction. Three male infants had in addition hepatic encephalopathy and 2 of them succumbed to their disease suggesting that hepatitis with encephalopathy has a very high mortality.
急性肝炎和肝性脑病是登革出血热(DHF)的罕见表现。我们报告了4名年龄在8个月至3岁之间出现严重肝功能障碍的儿童。3名男婴还患有肝性脑病,其中2名死于该病,这表明伴有脑病的肝炎死亡率非常高。
