AIH-PBC Overlap Syndrome Unmasked by Tuberculosis Treatment: Report of Two Cases and Literature Review

Year: 2024
Type: article
Study design: Case Report
Abstract: This article presents two patients who were diagnosed with autoimmune liver disease (autoimmune hepatitis and primary biliary cholangitis overlap syndrome) during anti-tuberculosis therapy, which is a rarely reported occurrence. It highlights the challenges in distinguishing drug-induced liver injury from authentic autoimmune liver disease. It also points out the importance of considering autoimmune liver disease as a potential diagnosis revealed by the setting of drug-induced liver injury.
