Hepatitis from nontyphoidal gastroenteritis is rare, especially in immunocompetent patients. We present the case of a 30-year-old woman who was found to have serotype C2 gastroenteritis and elevated liver function tests concerning for concurrent hepatitis. An extensive workup was negative for other etiologies, making the likely culprit. The patient was managed with supportive measures as her liver function tests and symptoms were improving before obtaining microbiological data. Since the role of antibiotic therapy in such cases is not well studied, disease severity in accordance with current guidelines should be used to tailor treatment on a case-by-case basis.
非伤寒性肠胃炎引起的肝炎很罕见,尤其是在免疫功能正常的患者中。我们报告一例30岁女性病例,该患者被发现患有C2血清型肠胃炎且肝功能检查结果升高,提示可能并发肝炎。全面检查排除了其他病因,确定了可能的病因。由于在获得微生物学数据之前患者的肝功能检查和症状正在改善,因此对该患者采取了支持性治疗措施。由于抗生素治疗在这类病例中的作用尚未得到充分研究,应根据当前指南中疾病的严重程度,对每个病例进行个体化治疗。
