Abstract:
Hepatitis C is a viral infection that is transmitted via blood or other bodily fluids and usually manifests as a chronic infection. We present a unique case of acute hepatitis C from a penile stem cell injection. Although previous cases have reported the reactivation of chronic hepatitis C after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, it is uncommon for hepatitis C to present acutely, especially in an immunocompetent patient. To our knowledge, this is the first case of acute hepatitis C after a penile stem cell injection.
摘要:
丙型肝炎是一种通过血液或其他体液传播的病毒感染,通常表现为慢性感染。我们介绍了阴茎干细胞注射引起的急性丙型肝炎的独特病例。尽管以前的病例报道了造血干细胞移植后慢性丙型肝炎的再激活,丙型肝炎急性发作并不常见,尤其是在有免疫能力的患者中。据我们所知,这是阴茎干细胞注射后的首例急性丙型肝炎。
