A 13 year old boy presented with headache, sore throat, myalgia, and fever and subsequently developed haemolytic anaemia and acute liver failure. Wilson's disease, a rare cause of acute liver failure, was diagnosed at necropsy. In such cases Wilson's disease must be diagnosed at an early stage for treatment to be effective. The most reliable indications are increased urinary and hepatic copper concentrations.
一名13岁男孩出现头痛、咽痛、肌痛和发热症状，随后发展为溶血性贫血和急性肝衰竭。尸检诊断为威尔逊病，这是急性肝衰竭的罕见病因。在这类病例中，威尔逊病必须早期诊断才能使治疗有效。最可靠的指征是尿铜和肝铜浓度升高。
