✦ Synopsis


The cardiovascular complications of viral hepatitis are not widely recognized. Profound hypotension and a variety of dysrhythmias, including sinus arrest, have been reported in association with viral hepatitis, but most of these cases were described before the advent of specific viral serologic markers. Furthermore, previous instances of cardiovascular complications occurred during the course of an established viral syndrome. We report the cases of two previously healthy women who presented with unexplained hypotension and bradycardia as the initial manifestations of acute icteric hepatitis A. This phenomenon appears to represent a variant clinical presentation of a common viral entity.
