Abstract

A 29-year-old woman with a history of preceding acute hepatitis A infection visited outpatient clinic. She complained of weakness of left finger flexor and tingling sense of both upper extremities, eleven weeks ago. Median neuropathy with partial axonotmesis state was diagnosed by the neurologic examination and electrophysiological studies. Her symptoms improved but she had remnant weakness of finger which disturbed the movement of pinch and grasp. This case reminds us to include mononeuritis such as median neuropathy as a rare sequela of acute hepatitis A infection.
