摘要：
Introduction: The majority of hepatitis E ( HE) reports come from Western Europe. The aim of the study was to describe the typical epidemiological and clinical characteristics of HE in the Czech Republic. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 173 patients with HE. Results: At least 90% of cases were autochthonous (HEV-3 genotype). Seventeen patients were treated with ribavirin. Five underwent liver transplants because of fulminant HE. We noted neurological symptomatology in 9 cases. Six patients developed chronic HE. Conclusions: There is a possibility of severe health complications caused by the hepatitis E virus in the Czech Republic.
