Objectives:To present a rare case of propofol-induced hepatitis. Materials and methods: A 59-year old man was referred to our department because of suspicion of toxic hepatitis after propofol anaesthesia for endoscopic colonoscopy.  Results: The patient had jaundice, increased transaminases demonstrating liver necrosis, and liver stiffness of 18 kPa. Liver biopsy revealed bridging necrosis and initial post-collapse fibrosis. Following therapy with steroids and N-acetyl cysteine, the patient was discharged on the seventh day after admission in good general condition. Conclusion: Although propofol is considered safe, it can cause acute hepatitis, the seventh published case of which is reported here. Importantly, treatment with N-acetyl cysteine, a radical scavenger, but especially with steroids resulted in hepatic improvement.

The Bacillus Calmette Guérin (BCG) vaccine was initially produced as a vaccine against tuberculosis. BCG is an attenuated live strain of Mycobacterium bovis and has been widely used as an immunotherapy over the last years in bladder cancer. We describe a case of a 61-year-old Caucasian male with previous bladder cancer, who had been treated for the last 15 months with instillation of BCG, admitted with 3-week evolution history of fever (38ºC), asthenia, anorexia and a weight loss of 6kg. The patient’s condition deteriorated leading to sepsis. A liver biopsy was performed showing granulomatous dispersed through all the parenchyma. Empirical therapy for M. bovis was started with good response. Even though it is rare, BCGitis must be ruled out in any patient submitted to immunotherapy with BCG and prompt therapy started if disseminated disease is present, which improves the outcome.

We present a rare case of a 46-year-old man who presented with recurrent fever and abdominal pain without other symptoms. Laboratory data were no specific for diagnosis. Abdominal imaging revealed a pseudotumor liver. A diagnosis of isolated liver tuberculosis with abscess component was confirmed with US-guided liver biopsy and histopathological examination. The patient received antibacillous drugs with success.

Primary Hemochromatosis is a hereditary disease that occurs predominantly in man. Among men, clinical signs and symptomsfrequently appears on 40 years until more than 60 years of age. Meanwhile, the signs and symptoms among women appear on 50 yearsof age or after menopause. It is a very rare case in children or young adult. Secondary hemochromatosis can be differentiated fromprimary hemochromatosis based on existence of other underlying disease and secondary hemochromatosis often occurs in patient withmultiple blood transfusions. The diagnosis of primary hemochromatosis is confirmed by chromosomal test and liver biopsy to confirmthe liver damage caused by excessive iron accumulation. The main treatment of primary hemochromatosis is phlebotomy. The purposeof this method is to remove overload iron in body. In this case, the patient was man, unmarried, 51 years old, Australian. Four yearsago, he had complained about arthropathies, chronic asthenia, depression, decreased of concentration and sexual desire. Laboratoryevaluation revealed Ferritin level 2126 ug/L and transferrin saturation always more than 99%. Liver function tests also increasedsignificantly. Some of his family’s members have the same disease as he has. He was diagnosed as primary hemochromatosis and hadperformed phlebotomy routinely. After phlebotomy has done, he recovered based on clinical and laboratorial findings.
