Autoimmune hepatitis: a rare cause of acute hepatic failure in male infant

Introduction Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the liver of unknown aetiology characterised by circulating autoantibodies, hypergammaglobulinaemia, necroinflammatory changes in liver histology and dramatic response to immunosuppresants. AIH has varied presentations ranging from asymptomatic cases to fulminant forms affecting all age groups from infancy to elderly. Here we report a male infant who presented as acute hepatitis, progressed to fulminant hepatic failure and succumbed.
