EXPERIMENTAL AND CLINICAL TRANSPLANTATION, cilt.21, sa.6, ss.540-542, 2023 (SCI-Expanded)
Sevoflurane is a volatile anesthetic agent that does not tend to cause clinically significant hepatotoxicity, but there are some reported hepatotoxicity cases in the literature. In the case presented here, adenotonsillectomy was performed during influenza infection, and sevoflurane was administered, after which acute fulminant hepatitis developed. At hour 24 of hospitalization after fulminant hepatic failure, liver transplant was performed in a 3.5-year-old patient without any known diseases. In such cases, etiology investigations should be planned, life support therapy should be administered, and information should be given to the patient to avoid exposure to sevoflurane in the future.
