Fulminant liver failure and renal failure related with malva sylvestris.

Malva sylvestris (MS) is a kind of plant that grows naturally in fields, hedgerows, and fallow fields. The plant is commonly used in cooking in the Central Anatolia region of Turkey. Despite its extensive usage, only one case of an adverse effect of MS has been reported in the English medical literature until today (1). Here, we present a new case with fulminant hepatic failure and renal failure that were caused by MS and resulted in death.
