Journal Article
COVID-19 Presenting as Acute Hepatitis
2020
Overview
Currently, there are no approved therapies for COVID-19 other than supportive care, enrollment in clinical trials, and the use of off-label therapies such as vitamin C and hydroxychloroquine without supportive, randomized clinical trials to support their efficacy. Laboratory results were as follows: white blood cell count 3.71 G/L, platelets 140 G/L, serum bilirubin 0.6 mg/dL (N: < 25), AST 1230 IU/L (N: < 50), ALT 697 IU/L (N: < 50), alkaline phosphatase 141 IU/L (N: < 125), serum albumin 3.1 g/dL (N: > 3.5), INR 1.08, and ferritin 6,606 ng/mL (N: <150). Because all other causes of acute nonicteric hepatitis were ruled out, it seems highly likely that her acute hepatitis was caused by COVID-19 infection.
