A fatal case of fulminant hepatic failure in an adolescent is described. Post-mortem examination revealed the cause to be Wilson's Disease. This rare presentation is characterised by apparently atypical changes in copper metabolism. Wilson's Disease should be a differential diagnosis of any adolescent presenting in liver failure.
本文描述了一例青少年暴发性肝衰竭的致命病例。尸检显示病因是威尔逊氏病。这种罕见的表现以铜代谢明显的非典型变化为特征。威尔逊氏病应作为任何出现肝衰竭的青少年的鉴别诊断。
