Ictericia febril colestásica como forma de presentación de linfoma de Hodgkin. / [Febrile cholestatic jaundice as an initial manifestation of Hodgkins disease].

ABSTRACT

The febrile cholestatic disease as a presentation of Hodgkins lymphoma is a very unusual condition. We describe here the case of a patient with prolonged fever of unknown origin and progressive jaundice, in whom the diagnosis was made with the analysis of a liver biopsy, given the absence of lymph node involvement that characterizes this disease. We remark the severe and multisystemic involvement of this rapidly progressive disease.
