description Hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection is a significant public health problem, which infects 20 million individuals every year. The clinical presentation of acute HEV infection is similar to hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection, and few affected children may progress to develop acute liver failure.

Herein we report acute kidney injury as a rare complication of acute hepatitis E in a child who recovered with a medical line of management.
