We report a 72 years old diabetic male that, after the use of combined amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, developed pruritus and jaundice. Liver function tests showed serum total bilirubin of 4.3 mg/dL aspartate aminotransferase 140 U/l (normal < 35 U/L), alanine aminotransferase 470 U/L (normal < 40) and alkaline phosphatases of 400 U/L (normal < 100). Serology for hepatitis A, B and C viruses was negative, ERCP showed a normal biliary tree and liver biopsy disclosed a cholestatic hepatitis. Ursodeoxycholic was started to relieve pruritus. Liver function tests improved shortly thereafter, suggesting that this drug may be useful in the treatment of drug induced cholestasis.
我们报告一名72岁的糖尿病男性,在使用阿莫西林-克拉维酸联合制剂后出现瘙痒和黄疸。肝功能检查显示血清总胆红素为4.3mg/dL,天冬氨酸转氨酶为140U/l(正常<35U/L),丙氨酸转氨酶为470U/L(正常<40),碱性磷酸酶为400U/L(正常<100)。甲型、乙型和丙型肝炎病毒血清学检查均为阴性,内镜逆行胰胆管造影显示胆管树正常,肝脏活检显示为胆汁淤积性肝炎。开始使用熊去氧胆酸来缓解瘙痒。此后不久肝功能检查有所改善,提示该药可能对药物性胆汁淤积的治疗有用。
