Abstract

We identified a novel human circovirus in an immunocompromised 66-year-old woman with sudden onset of self-limiting hepatitis. We detected human circovirus 1 (HCirV-1) transcripts in hepatocytes and the HCirV-1 genome long-term in the patient's blood, stool, and urine. HCirV-1 is an emerging human pathogen that persists in susceptible patients.
