dc.description.abstract	Anicteric hepatitis A infection can rarely present as ascites, pleural effusion, acute renal failure, aplastic anemia and fulminant hepatic failure. Association of hepatitis A infection with acute acalculus cholecystitis is known but rare. Primary acute acalculous cholecystitis in children is rare and commonly associated with systemic infections. We report a child developing acute aclaculus cholecystitis as a presenting feature of sporadic Hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection and review of HAV associated infection in children.	en_US
