Abstract:
We report on a patient who presented, on 2 occasions at one-year interval after a treatment with the amoxicillin-clavulanic acid association, a clinical and biological picture in keeping with the diagnosis of immuno-allergic hepatocellular hepatitis. On liver biopsies, the most characteristic finding was portal and lobular eosinophilic infiltration without cholestasis and biliary ducts damage.
