Résumé
HSV fulminant hepatitis is a rare pathology. Rapid hepatic failure, as a consequence of extended liver damage, has generally been attributed to necrosis. As apoptosis can constitute another way for hepatocytes to die, we decided to investigate whether programmed cell death took place during HSV fulminant hepatitis.
