Abstract
- Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is an unwarranted problem and has been a scourge in the treatment of tuberculosis (TB) infection in general and children in particular. Usually, when the Antituberculosis treatment (ATT) regime is temporarily interrupted and modified, DILI subsides, and the whole treatment can be completed under supervision. We report a case of ATT-induced DILI not improving despite modification in the ATT regime, which ultimately led to the revealing of a yet unreported constellation of syndromes that included Wilson Disease, 46 XX gonadal dysgenesis, and Mayer Rokitansky Kuster Hauser (MRKH) Syndrome.
