Overview

COVID-19-associated hepatic Injury must be differentiated from other conditions that cause elevation of liver enzymes.

Differential Diagnosis

COVID-19-associated hepatic Injury must be differentiated from other conditions that cause elevation of liver enzymes.

Disease Clinical manifestations Laboratory findings Additional findings
Symptoms Signs Transaminitis (elevated AST and ALT) Viral markers Autoimmune markers
Nausea & vomiting Abdominal pain Arthralgia Jaundice Hepatomegaly
Acute viral hepatitis Hepatitis A[1][2] +++ ++ + +++ + +++ HAV Ab ---
  • Fecal-oral transmission
  • Usually acute and self limit
  • Fever usually present
Hepatitis B[3] +++ ++ ++ +++ + +++ HBs Ag, HBc Ab, HBe Ag ---
  • Percutaneous transmission most common
  • May cause acute hepatic failure or may become chronic
  • Fever usually present
Hepatitis C[4] +++ ++ ++ +++ + +++ HCV Ab ---
Hepatitis E[5] ++ ++ +/- ++ + +++ HEV Ab ---
  • Fecal-oral transmission
  • May cause fulminant disease in pregnancy
  • Fever usually present
CMV hepatitis[6] +/- ++ - + + ++ CMV-specific immunoglobulin (Ig)M antibody --
  • Usually manifests as mononucleosis syndrome
  • fever usually present
EBV hepatitis[7] +/- ++ - +/- + ++ Heterophile antibody test, monospot test --
  • Systemic manifestations as mononucleosis syndrome
  • Fever usually present
Autoimmune hepatitis[8] - + +/- ++ + +++ --- ANA, ASMA, anti SLA/LP, ANCA, ALKM-1 antibodies
  • Liver biopsy may be required for diagnosis
Alcoholic hepatitis[9] +/- + - + - AST>ALT --- ---
  • History of alcohol intake
Drug induced hepatitis[10] +/- + - + + ++ --- ---
  • May cause either cholestatic or hepatocellular injury
COVID-19-associated hepatic Injury +[11] +[12] +[13] - +[13] ++[14] IgG/IgM Antibodies[15] ---
  • Fever usually present.
  • Live SARS-CoV-2 is also cultured from stool samples in rare cases, providing the evidence that SARS-CoV-2 has the possibility of fecal-oral transmission.[16][17]
