Abstract

A 29-year-old woman ingested 18 gm of acetaminophen with resultant hepatic necrosis and acute renal failure. Since 1966, eighty-six cases of hepatic necrosis secondary to acetaminophen overdose have been described. Acetaminophen overdosage should be considered as one of the causes of acute hepatorenal failure.
