Acute Liver Failure as an Index Presentation of Hematolymphoid Malignancy: A Rare Case Report
Acute liver failure (ALF) is usually due to viral hepatitis and toxins. We have recently seen a patient with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) presenting with ALF. High clinical suspicion is necessary for making a diagnosis of this rare etiology presenting as ALF. The outcome is better if an early diagnosis is made in such cases and appropriate treatment is initiated.
