  • Title: Cholestatic jaundice induced by gold salts treatment clinical and immunological aspects--report of one case and review of the literature.
    Author: Schapira D, Nahir M, Scharf Y, Pollack S.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 1984 Dec; 11(6):843-5. PubMed ID: 6440983.
    Abstract:
    Hepatotoxicity is a rare complication of treatment with gold salts. The clinical and laboratory features are those of cholestatic jaundice and other diagnostic possibilities must be ruled out. Gradual recovery after withdrawal of the drug is the rule. We report a case and review previous literature with emphasis on the diagnostic value of the lymphocyte transformation test.
