The authors describe an uncommon and severe intoxication with the mushroom Lepiota Helveolla Bres. which manifested itself by fulminant hepatic failure. The possibility of urgent transplantation of the liver was considered. After conservative treatment the patient recovered, however, completely. In the conclusion the authors' view is discussed as regards indications of urgent transplantation of the liver in intoxications with mushrooms which may cause fulminant hepatic failure.
