Abstract
Adenovirus is a known cause of hepatitis in immunocompromised children, but not in immunocompetent children. In April, 2022, following multiple reports of hepatitis of unknown aetiology and adenovirus viraemia in immunocompetent children in the USA and UK, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and jurisdictional health departments initiated national surveillance of paediatric acute hepatitis of unknown aetiology. We aimed to describe the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of children identified with hepatitis of unknown aetiology between Oct 1, 2021, and Sept 30, 2022, in the USA and to compare characteristics of those who tested positive for adenovirus with those who tested negative.
