title: [Neurological symptoms and acute hepatitis associated with parvovirus B19].
abstract: The spectrum of symptoms correlated to parvovirus B19 infections has expanded greatly during the past years. We report a case of anaemia, encephalitis-like symptoms and acute hepatitis in a 15-months-old Danish girl associated with parvovirus B19, verified by positive serum IgM og IgG antibodies. She presented with non-febrile seizures and decreased level of consciousness. Later she developed signs of acute hepatitis. The course was benign.
