Abstract

There are many causes of raised liver function tests in HIV infection. This lesson discusses a case where autoimmune hepatitis, acute hepatitis B and acute toxoplasmosis were diagnosed in a lady presenting with abdominal pain and jaundice. Oral steroids for autoimmune hepatitis may have worsened the clinical picture as her hepatitis serology was not available at the time. This lesson highlights the importance of waiting for all serology results to return in an ill jaundiced patient before deciding on active management and treatment
