Diseases of the liver and biliary tract

Tuberculous hepatitis

Tuberculosis hepatitis is usually found in autopsy or laparoscopy in patients with abdominal tuberculosis. Tuberculosis of the liver accompanies intestinal tuberculosis in 79-99% of cases.

Toxoplasmosis Hepatitis

Congenital toxoplasmosis Hepatitis is a disease caused by toxoplasm obtained by the fetus antenatally from the mother and toxoplasmosis.

Hepatitis caused by the herpes simplex virus type 1 and 2

Hepatitis caused by the herpes simplex virus type 1 and 2 (HSV 1 and HSV 2) is a disease caused by herpes simplex viruses, by which the fetus is infected from the mother with a disease caused by these viruses.

Chlamydial hepatitis

Congenital chlamydial hepatitis is a disease that occurs when antenatal infection of the fetus with chlamydia from the mother with chlamydia infection.

Fulminant (malignant) hepatitis

Fulminant hepatitis is a special clinical form of acute hepatitis, resulting from submissive or massive liver necrosis caused by an etiological agent and characterized by a complex of clinical and biochemical symptoms of progressive hepatic insufficiency.

Hepatitis caused by herpes simplex viruses

The pathogenesis of HSV-hepatitis has not been studied to date in immunocompromised or immunocompetent patients. There is reason to believe that in a number of cases reactivation of latent HSV infection occurs against the background of cytostatic therapy.

Varicella-Zoster Hepatitis

The pathogenesis of VZV-hepatitis has not been studied. For the first time the idea of hepatitis of the herpesvirus type 3 virus originated in the development of a live vaccine against varicella, when it was convincingly shown that he had a marked tropism for hepatocytes.

Hepatitis caused by human herpes virus types 6 and 7

Possible development of acute cholestatic febrile HHV 6-hepatitis in organ transplant patients. HHV 6-infection can cause transplant rejection in patients who underwent liver transplantation.

Epstein-Barr virus viral hepatitis

Epstein-Barr virus viral hepatitis is a term that implies not involving the liver in the pathological process in general, as, for example, in infectious mononucleosis, but an independent form of Epstein-Barr virus infection, in which liver damage appeared in isolation and was not accompanied by a clinical picture of infectious mononucleosis.

Cytomegalovirus hepatitis

Cytomegalovirus hepatitis is an independent form of CMV infection, in which liver damage occurs in isolation if cytomegalovirus has tropism not to the epithelium of the bile ducts, but directly to the hepatocytes.
