Amoxicillin-clavulanate-induced granulomatous hepatitis: Case report and review of the literature

Abstract

Amoxicillin-clavulanate (AC) is a common cause of drug-induced liver injury, either cholestatic or mixed with hepatitis pattern. Rarely, AC causes granulomatous hepatitis. We report a new case of AC-induced granulomatous hepatitis documented by liver biopsy, with complete resolution of any histological sequelae on a follow-up liver biopsy after AC was withdrawn.
