Autoimmune hepatitis unmasked by dengue infection - An unexplored and rare association.

Dengue hepatitis is mostly asymptomatic but can lead to liver failure. Autoimmune hepatitis is mainly the disease of females and a potentially treatable cause of chronic liver disease. We report a rare case in which autoimmune hepatitis was unmasked by Dengue infection. The patient was managed for AIH with steroids and azathioprine and became asymptomatic in 30 days. Dengue is a proven risk factor for many autoimmune conditions but its association with AIH is not studied.
