Core Tip |
A 64-year-old woman was referred to our hospital with hepatopathy. After admission, she developed hepatic encephalopathy. Laboratory findings revealed that serum ceruloplasmin levels were reduced, serum and urinary copper levels were greatly elevated and Wilson disease (WD)-specific routine tests were positive. She was diagnosed with fulminant WD based on the American Association for the Study of Liver Disease practice guidelines. At autopsy, the liver did not show a bridging pattern of fibrosis suggestive of chronic liver injury. Here, we present the first case of a patient with clinically diagnosed late-onset fulminant WD without cirrhosis. |
