Epstein-Barr virus infection and hepatic fibrin-ring granulomas.

Hepatic fibrin-ring granulomas were the main histological finding in the liver of a 38-year-old man with Epstein-Barr virus primary infection. The patient presented with fever, hepatomegaly, icterus, abnormal liver tests, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, and mononucleosis syndrome. There was neither enanthema nor lymphadenopathy or splenomegaly. Serologic tests disclosed an Epstein-Barr primary infection profile: anti-viral capsid antigen IgM antibodies and anti-early antigen antibodies were present, whereas anti-Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen antibodies were absent. There was no evidence for Q fever, Hodgkin's disease, or allopurinol-induced hepatitis, which are recognized causes of hepatic fibrin-ring granulomas. It is suggested that Epstein-Barr virus infection might be an additional cause of these peculiar hepatic granulomas.[1]
