HNO
|September 1, 1975
A report of two cases of hepatic complications (one of these with fatal consequence) after pediatric tonsillectomy using halothane anesthesia is given. Although in both cases it could not be proven that the halothane was the cause of the hepatic complication, an exacerbation of occult liver dystfunction by the anesthetic was considered possible.
