Abstract:
Epstein -Barr virus hepatitis is liver inflammation caused by Epstein -Barr virus infection, mainly self -limited hepatitis or mild or moderate liver injury.It often has good prognosis, but it may progress to chronic liver disease, severe hepatitis, and even intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.The clinical manifestations and histopathological features of this disease lack specificity , which may lead to missed diagnosis or misdiagnosis, and thus it should be taken seriously by clinicians .This article introduces the mechanism of Epstein -Barr virus infection and reviews the research advances in Epstein -Barr viral hepatitis.
