The incidence of Autoimmune Hepatitis (AIH) increases worldwide. If undiagnosed, it may progress end-stage liver disease. Unfortunately, there is no characteristic clinical presentation of this disease, which makes the illness hard to recognize. A case report illustrates the difficulties of diagnosing the patient during his two hospitalizations and his final treatment with prednisolone which improved the patient's condition.
自身免疫性肝炎(AIH)的发病率在全球范围内呈上升趋势。如果未被诊断,它可能会进展为终末期肝病。不幸的是,这种疾病没有特征性的临床表现,这使得疾病难以识别。一个病例报告说明了在患者两次住院期间诊断的困难,以及最终使用泼尼松龙治疗改善了患者的病情。
