La disfunci��n hep��tica es la disminuci��n en las funciones del h��gado, lo que limita cumplir con sus principales funciones como es la eliminaci��n de sustancias da��inas del torrente sangu��neo, digesti��n de alimentos y s��ntesis de vitaminas. Cuando este ��rgano es afectado por virus como el dengue, puede causar alteraciones enzim��ticas, inflamaci��n, deficiencias m��s graves. El objetivo de la investigaci��n fue describir la asociaci��n entre la disfunci��n hep��tica y la infecci��n por el virus dengue. Se realiz�� una investigaci��n descriptiva con dise��o documental, a trav��s de una revisi��n sistem��tica en las bases electr��nicas Pubmed, SciELO, Elsevier y Google Acad��mico, incluyendo art��culos publicados en los ��ltimos cuatro a��os en idiomas ingl��s ��� espa��ol. La disfunci��n hep��tica se presenta en forma de transaminitis con alrededor del 65 -97% en los casos de pacientes con dengue. Se han descrito alteraciones graves y casos con presencia de insuficiencia hep��tica aguda por dengue. Estudios post-mortem han revelado part��culas virales en el tejido hep��tico. En base al an��lisis de los estudios se sugiere que la infecci��n por dengue afecta tejidos y ��rganos, entre ellos el tejido hep��tico, sin embargo, a��n no est�� bien definido el mecanismo de acci��n por el cual el virus induce da��o al tejido hep��tico, {"references":["Organización Mundial de la Salud.
