ABSTRACT
Hyperacute liver failure from mushroom intoxication in children is rare and has a low survival rate. We report a case of hyperacute liver failure from mushroom intoxication in a 29-month-old boy. The patient ingested a mushroom about three days prior to presentation. He was admitted to the hospital with vomiting, abdominal pain, seizures, and hematemesis. During the hospitalization the patient developed hepatic encephalopathy (stage IV-a), and a coagulopathy. He recovered fully with specific medication, Penicillin GK and N-acetylcysteine.
