Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne infection that co-circulates with Chikungunya and Zika virus infection in many parts of the world. Dengue virus (DENV) is occasionally responsible for acute hepatitis and a few cases of acute hepatitis due to co-infection with DENV and hepatitis E virus have been described in India. A 37-year-old Cuban woman living in Italy was admitted to our hospital with a presumed arboviral infection upon her return to Italy short after a 15-day trip to her home-country to visit relatives. An acute infection due to DENV serotype 1 was initially diagnosed, following a clinical course characterized by signs of liver dysfunction that were possibly due to co-infection with hepatitis E virus.
登革热是一种由蚊子传播的感染性疾病,在世界许多地区与基孔肯雅热和寨卡病毒感染共同流行。登革病毒(DENV)偶尔会引发急性肝炎,在印度已有数例因DENV与戊型肝炎病毒共同感染导致急性肝炎的病例报道。一名居住在意大利的37岁古巴女性,在回国探亲15天后返回意大利时,因疑似虫媒病毒感染入住我院。最初诊断为DENV 1型急性感染,其临床过程表现出肝功能障碍迹象,可能是由于与戊型肝炎病毒共同感染所致。
