Core Tip Sodium valproate is widely used in the treatment of epilepsy in clinical practice although it has potential hepatotoxicity. Herein, we report a case of fatal acute liver failure (ALF) with thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) caused by sodium valproate treatment. A history of chronic hepatitis B virus or combination therapy with sodium valproate and carbapenem may increase the risk of ALF. The combination therapy of plasma exchange, glucocorticoid, and supportive therapy is essential for TMA. Organ transplantation at the early stage of the disease may be the first choice for critically ill patients. Our case report can facilitate further studies on the diagnosis and therapy for ALF with TMA.
