✦ Synopsis


In an electron microscopic study, nuclear aggregates of virus-like spherical and tubular particles measuring 20 to 29 nm in diameter were found in 5 of 7 clinically healthy volunteers with normal liver histology, 6 of 10 patients with hepatitis B and 17 of 18 patients with hepatitis non-A, non-B. The incidence of hepatocytes containing nuclear particles was approximately 0.5 to 2% in all three groups. We conclude that these nuclear particles are not specific ultrastructural markers of hepatitis non-A, non-B in man as originally claimed for experimental hepatitis non-A, non-B in chimpanzees.

## Abstract Many cases of acute hepatitis remain undiagnosed and the hepatitis E virus (HEV) is emerging in industrialized countries. The aim of this study was to assess the role HEV as causative agent in acute non‐A, non‐B, and non‐C hepatitis patients in Hungary. 10.5% of the 264 acute non‐A, non
