RESUMEN
La infección por el virus de la hepatitis E es una causa clásica de hepatitis fulminante en la gestación que puede acarrear graves consecuencias materno-fetales. Las complicaciones fetales se derivan fundamentalmente de la transmisión vertical durante la gestación o el parto (hipotermia, hipoglucemia, hepatitis aguda, necrosis masiva hepática) y de un aumento de la prematuridad que conllevaría una mayor mortalidad neonatal. La peritonitis meconial se ha descrito como complicación de la infección materno-fetal por parvovirus B19, citomegalovirus, rubeola, virus de la hepatitis A y virus de la hepatitis B, sin que hayan sido comunicados en la bibliografía casos secundarios a la infección por virus de la hepatitis E. Presentamos el caso de una gestante de 19 semanas que ingresa por un cuadro de hepatitis aguda E, con diagnóstico fetal ecográfico prenatal compatible con peritonitis meconial (AU)
ABSTRACT
Hepatitis E virus infection is a classical cause of fulminant hepatitis during pregnancy, which can lead to severe maternal and fetal complications. Fetal complications are mainly derived from the vertical transmission during pregnancy or delivery (hypothermia, hypoglycaemia, acute hepatitis, massive liver necrosis) and from and increase in prematurity that would lead on to a greater neonatal mortality. Meconium peritonitis has been described as a complication of maternal and fetal infection by parvovirus B19, cytomegalovirus, rubella, hepatitis A virus and hepatitis B virus. There have been no published cases relating meconium peritonitis and hepatitis E virus infection. We present the case of a 19 week pregnant woman admitted with an acute hepatitis E, with a fetal prenatal ultrasound diagnosis of meconium peritonitis (AU)
