Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2000
The mainstay of treatment for acute viral hepatitis is supportive care, as most cases are self-limited. General measures in all types of acute viral hepatitis include bedrest if the patient is very symptomatic, a high-calorie diet, avoidance of hepatotoxic medications, and abstinence from alcohol with the anticipation that most patients will recover ...

Symptomatic acute hepatitis C occurs in only about 15% of patients who are infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). Acute hepatitis C is most often diagnosed in the setting of post-exposure surveillance, or seroconversion in high-risk individuals (eg, health-care professionals or injecting drug users) previously known to be seronegative.

Seminars in Diagnostic Pathology, 2006
Most liver biopsies performed today are for grading and staging of chronic viral hepatitis and steatohepatitis; there are uncommon indications for liver biopsy in the setting of acute hepatitis. Pathologists must have a broad knowledge of many forms of acute and chronic hepatitis, as well as their variations; these include viral hepatitis, autoimmune ...

A 19 year old woman presented to the emergency department with worsening pain and distension of the right upper quadrant. She was jaundiced and had ascites. A contrast enhanced portal venous phase computed tomogram of the liver at the level of the caudate lobe was requested. What does this show?

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1997
Acute hepatobiliary dysfunction in children may occur as the result of trauma, infectious hepatitis, biliary obstruction, benign and malignant tumors, and acute vascular obstruction. The targeted and integrated use of modern imaging techniques has made a significant impact in the diagnosis and management of these disorders.

Clinics in Liver Disease, 2019
Alcoholic hepatitis is a unique type of alcohol-associated liver disease characterized by acute liver inflammation caused by prolonged heavy alcohol use. Treatment is mostly supportive. The short-term prognosis of acute alcoholic hepatitis depends on liver recovery, and ranges widely from rapid improvement to grim multiorgan failure despite treatment ...

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1985
Acute hepatic failure is characterized by a sudden catastrophic compromise of hepatic failure that causes clinical signs such as anorexia, depression, vomiting, diarrhea, icterus, and encephalopathy. Injurious hepatotoxins, drugs, infectious agents, or metabolic disturbances can cause acute hepatic failure; however, in many cases, the inciting cause is

Pathology of Acute Hepatitis A in Human: Comparison with Acute Hepatitis B
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1984Little is known about the pathologic characteristics of viral hepatitis A in humans. The authors compared the histologic features in liver biopsy specimens taken within 30 days of the onset of illness from 15 patients with hepatitis A and 14 patients with acute hepatitis B.

The aetiology of acute hepatitis in Zimbabwe
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1984The cause of acute viral hepatitis in 141 patients admitted to both Infectious Diseases Hospitals in Harare (Zimbabwe) was hepatitis A in 44, hepatitis B in 86 and hepatitis Non-A Non-B in 11. The wide distribution of hepatitis A and B viruses and early exposure to both in Zimbabwe are shown by the high positivity rate for anti-HAV antibody in patients
