We report a case of methimazole-induced acute hepatic failure, which occurred 17 weeks after initiation of the drug in a 43-year-old man with hyperthyroidism and hepatitis B surface antigenemia. Postmortem needle autopsy of the liver revealed an established micronodular cirrhosis secondary to hepatitis B with moderate septal/portal inflammation, marked cholestasis and scattered acidophilic bodies. The serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) was positive, but reactivation of hepatitis B was unlikely in view of the absence of a serum hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) and hepatitis B virus deoxyribonucleic acid (HBV-DNA) and negative stain for HBsAg and hepatitis B core antigen (HBcAg) in the liver tissue.
