Infectious Hepatitis A and Enteric Hepatitis E.
Infectious hepatitis A and enteric hepatitis E have a peak incidence in late adolescence or young adulthood. Using a 14-year-old boy as an example, the authors trace the course of hepatitis A through the preicteric and icteric phases, the development of persistent jaundice, relapse, and liver failure. The discussion of hepatitis E addresses microbiology and clinical course of the condition.
