Abstract:
A case of apparent acute hepatitis developed during a mild attack of left-sided heart failure is reported. No shock or significant systemic hypotension was observed which are usually reported in such patients. The signs of the liver impairment were transient, subsiding with the successful treatment of the heart failure.
