SUMMARY A descriptive lenghtwise and prospective study of 37 patients with reactive hepatitis caused by hemorrhagic dengue virus, who were clinically humorally and ecographically followed up for one year, was made to characterize the disease and its development. The results were analyzed as percentages and yielded the predominance of the morbid process in females and young people and of fever as a symptom and hepatomegalia as a sign. Thrombocytopenia and increased hematocrit followed transaminanse levels as the most altered lab values whereas the perivesicular edema was the most striking element from the echographic viewpoint. The follow-up allowed us to observe a rapid clinical recovery and the normalization of transaminanse levels but the persistence of the serine-globulin index inversion and of hepatomegalia in almost one quarter of the patients were also noted.
