Human Herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8)

20
Q

Largest DNA virus; the only DNA virus that is complex (not icosahedral); the only DNA virus that replicates in the cytoplasm (not in the nucleus)

A

POXVIRIDAE

21
Q

causes SMALLPOX

  • Brick-shaped
  • Guarnieri bodies: intracytoplasmic eosinophilic inclusions

✅ centrifugal rash

A

Variola virus (poxviridae)

22
Q

“Dane particles”

  • Granular eosinophilic “ground glass” appearance
A

HBV

23
Q

The only positive during window period

The only positive among vaccinated patients

A

Anti-HBc IgM

24
Q
  • Councilman body
  • Granular eosinophilic “ground glass” appearance
A

HBV

25
Q

The only positive among vaccinated patients

A

Anti-HBs

26
Q

Note :

Chronic infection is characterized by the persistence of HBsAg for at least 6 months.

Persistence of HBsAg is the principal marker of risk for developing chronic liver disease and liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) later in life.

Complications:
✅ HEPATIC ENCEPHALOPATHY
✅ PORTAL HYPERTENSION
