Rituximab-Induced Hepatitis C Virus Fulminant Hepatitis (Case Report)
Chronic hepatitis C virus infection is attributed as a cause of circulating mixed cryoglobulinemia and immune mediated extrahepatic complications. Massive pulmonary haemorrhages with chronic hepatitis C has been scarcely reported; and has been associated with renal failure and cryoglobulinemia. The most commonly used treatment modalities include the use of cyclophosphamide, prednisolone, and pl...
متن کاملOccurrence & nucleotide sequence analysis of hepatitis G virus in patients with acute viral hepatitis & fulminant hepatitis.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE Association of hepatitis G virus (HGV) with acute viral hepatitis (AVH) and fulminant hepatitis (FH) is not clearly understood. This study was designed to asses the occurrence of HGV infection and its relationship with other hepatotropic viruses in patients with FH and AVH and also to determine the nucleotide sequence of HGV isolates. METHODS The study included 100 pati...
متن کاملHepatitis G virus infection in fulminant hepatic failure.
BACKGROUND RNA sequences of the recently identified hepatitis GB virus C (HGBV-C), also named hepatitis G virus (HGV), have been detected in patients with idiopathic fulminant hepatic failure (FHF) but the role of this agent in the disease remains controversial. AIMS To investigate the presence and implications of HGV infection in a large series of Spanish patients with FHF. PATIENTS Sixty ...
متن کاملDengue causing fulminant hepatitis in a hepatitis B virus carrier.
Dengue is an acute febrile illness resulting from infection by a flavivirus transmitted by the Aedes mosquito. It is characterized by bleeding manifestations and a plasma leak syndrome. Hepatic involvement in the form of elevation in transaminases is common. However, acute hepatic failure is uncommon. It is not known how the presence of an underlying chronic hepatitis or liver disease affects t...
متن کاملNovel Genetic Variants of Hepatitis B Virus in Fulminant Hepatitis
Fulminant hepatitis (FH) is a life-threatening liver disease characterised by intense immune attack and massive liver cell death. The common precore stop codon mutation of hepatitis B virus (HBV), A1896, is frequently associated with FH, but lacks specificity. This study attempts to uncover all possible viral nucleotides that are specifically associated with FH through a compiled sequence analy...
