Amiodarone-Induced Liver Injury and Cirrhosis
We present a case report of an 80-year-old woman with volume overload thought initially to be secondary to heart failure, but determined to be amiodarone-induced acute and chronic liver injury leading to submassive necrosis and bridging fibrosis consistent with early cirrhosis. Her histopathology was uniquely absent of steatosis and phospholipidosis, which are commonly seen in AIC.
متن کاملPredictors of intravenous amiodarone induced liver injury
Background Intravenous (IV) amiodarone may be associated with liver injury that may necessitate drug discontinuation. The prediction of amiodarone induced liver injury (AILI) and its severity may help careful patient monitoring or the choice of other measures alternative to amiodarone in high risk patients. Little is known regarding predictors of AILI. Objectives To address the predictors of ...
متن کاملAspirin-Induced Acute Liver Injury
Aspirin is thought to be a relatively safe drug in adults. The association of aspirin and Reye syndrome in children is well documented. We report a 41-year-old female with pericarditis who was treated with high-dose aspirin and developed subsequent acute liver injury. After discontinuation of aspirin, liver enzyme elevation and right upper quadrant pain both resolved. We conclude that high-dose...
متن کاملAcute Alcohol-Induced Liver Injury
Alcohol consumption is customary in most cultures and alcohol abuse is common worldwide. For example, more than 50% of Americans consume alcohol, with an estimated 23.1% of Americans participating in heavy and/or binge drinking at least once a month. A safe and effective therapy for alcoholic liver disease (ALD) in humans is still elusive, despite significant advances in our understanding of ho...
متن کاملAcute amiodarone-induced lung toxicity
The toxic effects of amiodarone on the lung are well recognised, but the rapid onset of those effects, especially in the presence of high inspired oxygen concentrations, are perhaps not adequately appreciated. This may be a potential problem in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) where amiodarone is frequently used in the treatment of tachydysrhythmias in patients with acute respiratory distress synd...
