Treatment with low-molecular-weight heparins is very common in clinical practice. Exceptionally, some patients develop hepatitis within a few days of starting treatment, and rapid discontinuation of the drug is decisive to avoid chronification.
These episodes usually present themselves only with elevated transaminases. We describe the case of a patient who presented a cholestatic pattern, which is very uncommon with this type of drug.
Hepatitis secondary to heparin therapy is an underdiagnosed entity. The laboratory plays a fundamental role in its diagnosis, given that it initially presents itself without a clear clinical profile.
低分子量肝素治疗在临床实践中非常常见。例外的是,一些患者在开始治疗后的几天内会出现肝炎,迅速停药对于避免病情慢性化至关重要。
这些发作通常仅表现为转氨酶升高。我们描述了一名出现胆汁淤积型的患者病例,这种情况在这类药物中非常罕见。
肝素治疗继发的肝炎是一种诊断不足的疾病。鉴于其最初表现缺乏明确的临床特征,实验室检查在其诊断中起着至关重要的作用。
