ABSTRACT

La toxicidad hepática por isoniacida, sobre todo asociada a rifampicina, es un raro efecto adverso de la terapia antituberculosa. En EE.UU., es la causa de 0,2% de los trasplantes hepáticos pediátricos y del 14% de los trasplantes por toxicidad medicamentosa. Comunicamos el caso de una paciente de 10 años de edad con falla hepática fulminante que requirió trasplante hepático luego de cuarenta días de tratamiento tuberculostático con isoniacida, rifampicina y pirazinamida.


Hepatoxicity of isoniazid, mainly in association with rifampin, is a rare secondary effect of tuberculostatic treatment. In the United States, it accounts for 0.2% of all pediatric orthotropic liver transplant, and 14% of transplants for drug hepatotoxicity. We report the case of a 10 year-old patient who presented with acute liver failure requiring orthotropic liver transplant after forty days of tuberculostatic treatment with isoniazid, rifampin and pyrazinamide.
