ABSTRACT
This retrospective study compares the clinical features, laboratory profile and complications of anti HAV IgM positive acute viral hepatitis A in 138 children between 1-15 year (1-5 year: n=31; 5-10 year: n=85; and 10-15year: n=22). We found that older children presented with HAV (hepatitis A virus) infection with more atypical manifestations (ascites and splenomegaly) and complications.
