Hepatitis E: un virus infrecuente o un agente infrecuentemente pensado? / [Hepatitis E: an infrequent virus or an unfrecuently investigated agent?].

The first patient had prior hepatic involvement and therefore a more severe course, whereas the second case, with normal liver function, only developed a self-limited acute hepatitis.
