Autoimmune Hepatitis with Concomitant Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura Diagnosed by Transjugular Liver Biopsy.
Patients with autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) may sometimes have concomitant idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). Severe thrombocytopenia in ITP interferes with percutaneous liver biopsy for pathological diagnosis of AIH. Here, we report a case of AIH with ITP in a 63-year-old woman. The patient presented to our hospital with liver dysfunction and thrombocytopenia. For histological examination, transjugular liver biopsy (TJLB) was performed, leading to a diagnosis of AIH. Corticosteroids treatment led to an improvement in her liver enzyme levels and platelet count. In conclusion, patients with AIH may sometimes have concomitant ITP. TJLB was effective for making the diagnosis of AIH with severe thrombocytopenia due to ITP.
