Abstract
Severe hepatotoxicity from combination chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil is a rare adverse effect. In this case report, we present a case with severe hepatotoxicity immediately following chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil. This female patient had previously been treated with this combination with no hepatotoxicity. The elevated liver enzymes quickly normalized after chemotherapy was stopped. There were no specific changes in liver imaging. As hepatotoxicity occurred after repeated administration of cisplatin, we suggest that this hepatotoxicity might represent a case of allergic hepatitis caused by cisplatin. Severe hepatotoxicity should be watched for with repeated administration of cisplatin.
