Liver injury is a common manifestation of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), with most injuries manifesting as transient mild hepatocellular injury. Cholestatic injury occurs less commonly and is typically mild. Severe cholestatic injury is rare, with only 4 cases reported in the literature. We present a 70-year-old woman with no known liver disease who presented with severe COVID-19 and developed severe cholestatic hepatitis. A liver biopsy was performed demonstrating bile duct injury, uncommonly reported in patients with COVID-19. This complication needs greater awareness because it has been known to cause progressive liver disease requiring transplantation.
肝损伤是2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)的常见表现,大多数损伤表现为短暂性轻度肝细胞损伤。胆汁淤积性损伤较少见,通常较轻。严重胆汁淤积性损伤罕见,文献中仅报道了4例。我们报告一名70岁无已知肝脏疾病的女性,她患有严重的COVID-19并发展为严重胆汁淤积性肝炎。进行了肝活检,显示胆管损伤,这在COVID-19患者中鲜有报道。这种并发症需要更多关注,因为已知它会导致需要进行移植的进行性肝病。
