INTRODUCTION: Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic inflammatory condition of the liver characterized by elevated hepatocellular enzymes, autoantibodies, immunoglobulins, periportal inflammation and rapid improvement with steroids. Associated peripheral eosinophilia has been rarely reported. We report a case of AIH presenting with eosinophilia. CASE DESCRIPTION/METHODS: A 48-year-old Caucasian male with a past medical history of splenectomy a year ago following a motor vehicle accident presented to the emergency department with a 2-week history of diarrhea, malaise, anorexia, chills and dark urine. He also observed yellowish discoloration of his eyes 5 days prior to presentation. No history of over-the-counter medications, supplements, alcohol or drug use. Vital signs were normal while physical exam was only notable for scleral icterus. Labs on admission showed: WBC 21.9K/mL (35% eosinophils), AST 820U/L, ALT 350U/L, ALP 204U/L, total bilirubin 13mg/dl (conjugated bilirubin 8.7mg/dl), INR 1.8. Due to concerns for acute liver injury, evaluation by CT abdomen and MRCP revealed nodular contours of the liver suggestive of chronic hepatic parenchymal disease, no evidence of biliary ductal pathology. He was managed conservatively with fluids while further extensive work-up to determine etiology of liver injury and eosinophilia such as acute hepatitis panel, CMV PCR, EBV IgM, alpha-1 antitrypsin, ceruloplasmin, mycoplasma IgM, stool studies for infection and parasites, strongyloides, histoplasma antigen were negative. IgG (2084mg/dl) and IgA (732mg/dl) were elevated as ANA and smooth muscle antibody were positive. As liver enzymes, eosinophilia and INR continued to rise, a liver biopsy was performed which showed extensive bridging fibrosis, ballooning degeneration of hepatocytes, mild fatty change, mixed inflammatory infiltration with lymphocytes, plasma cells, eosinophils and occasional neutrophils in the portal areas, prominent interface changes all consistent with autoimmune hepatitis. No evidence of ductopenia, periductal fibrosis or granulomas was seen. He was started on steroids with immediate resolution of eosinophilia and improvement of symptoms and labs. DISCUSSION: With this report, we hope to draw awareness to this unusual presentation of AIH. As eosinophilia resolved rapidly with treatment of liver disease, AIH should be strongly considered in patients with elevated liver enzymes and peripheral eosinophilia especially in the absence of other predisposing conditions for eosinophilia.
