Abstract
This report describes a case of severe hepatitis in an individual returning from India which was found to be the result of infection with HEV genotype 4. HEV was diagnosed using a novel RT-PCR assay (with internal control) for HEV RNA detection/quantitation, described herein. This is the first documented report of zoonotic transmission of HEV genotype 4 infection acquired in India. Copyright 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.Entities:
