Neonatal hepatitis is a very general terminology and the long term outlook depends upon the underlying cause of hepatitis. Most of the viral infections causing hepatitis may resolve, but there is a possibility of lingering effect-long term and/or short term. Your doctor can discuss with you based on actual cause of hepatitis and outlook.
