A fifteen-year-old male was admitted with the complaints of ongoing weakness, anorexia, nausea, myalgia, arthralgia, paleness in stool, dark urine and abdominal pain lasting a week. Physical examination revealed a positive Murphy's sign and, icterus on skin and sclera. Laboratory examination revealed an aspartate aminotransferase of 1095 U/L, an alanine aminotransferase of 1645 U/L, total bilirubin of 4.0 mg/dL, direct bilirubin of 2.2 mg/dL, and a CRP of 6 mg/dL. Abdominal sonography revealed gallbladder thickening (high to 7.1 mm) and the positive sonographic Murphy's sign. HBsAg, anti-HBc-IgM and aAnti-HCV were determined negative, whereas anti-HAV-IgM was determined positive, through ELISA.
