| Core Tip |
Acute sickle cell intrahepatic cholestasis is a rare and life-threatening form of sickle cell hepatopathy, with a mortality rate approaching 40%. Patients typically present with fever, abdominal pain and jaundice. Rarely, it may progress to an acute liver failure phenotype, commonly associated with multi-system organ failure. Diagnosis is made after excluding other causes of acute liver injury. Treatment options include exchange blood transfusion and liver transplantation. |
