| Core Tip |
A total of 8 patients with anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-induced autoimmune hepatitis were detected in a single center with over 600 patients. The authors raise the question as to whether most cases represent autoimmune-like drug-induced liver injury (DILI) or defined autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) as the majority of patients responded favorably to steroids and did not require maintenance therapy corresponding to the former. Although anti-TNF therapy-related AIH is rare, a baseline immunological panel along with liver function tests should be performed in all patients with autoimmune disease before starting biologics, in order to detect undiagnosed AIH or help differentiate between DILI and established AIH. |
