[Inapparent infection with hepatitis A virus and glomerulonephritis in a child].
A 9-year-old boy developed inapparent infection with hepatitis A virus (HAV) and glomerulonephritis, simultaneously. The diagnosis was confirmed by the finding of serum anti-HAV IgM. We suggest that the kidney involvement was also caused by HAV. Recovery was uneventful.
