Abstract: This paper reports 3 cases of acute hepatitis of unknown cause in children who met the case definition of WHO. Human adenovirus group C was detected in case 3, and the quantity of viral DNA was relatively high, which may be related to the liver function damage in the patient, but its role in pathogenesis needs further study to confirm.
