Abstract
Acute liver injury may be very difficult to treat, especially when the etiology is unknown. We describe a case of a patient who presented with signs and symptoms of acute liver injury and went through an extensive work-up that did not reveal a definitive cause. The lack of diagnosis can be distressing for the patient, so it is important to regularly communicate the current plan and potential future necessary steps (such as a transplant surgery) to facilitate smooth, informed decision-making throughout the whole process.
