Hepatitis B (HBV, Hep B) Hepatitis viruses that can cause injury to liver cells in addition to hepatitis B include the hepatitis A and hepatitis C viruses. These viruses are not related to each other or to the hepatitis B virus, and they differ in their structure, the ways they are spread among individuals, the severity of symptoms they can cause, the way they are treated, and the outcome of the infection.

Viral hepatitis Hepatitis C (originally non-A non-B hepatitis) is caused by hepatitis C virus (HCV), an RNA virus that is a member of the Flaviviridae family. HCV can be transmitted through contact with blood (including through sexual contact if the two parties' blood is mixed) and can also cross the placenta.

Test Center Viral hepatitis is a common form of liver disease that affects roughly 1% to 2% of the United States population. It is caused by a diverse group of hepatotropic agents that lead to liver inflammation and cell death. Five hepatitis viruses have been well characterized: hepatitis A (HAV), B (HBV), C (HCV), D (HDV), and E (HEV). HAV, HBV, and HCV are the most frequent causes of viral hepatitis in the United States (Table 1). HDV infection is rare in the United States, except among HBV-infected individuals.

Person can become infected with the hepatitis E virus (HEV) by drinking contaminated water. 2  Hepatitis that cannot be attributed to one of the viral forms of the disease is called hepatitis X. 3  Hepatitis G is another type of hepatitis caused by a specific virus (HGV).
