抄録

A16-year-old girl was admitted to our hospital because of general malaise and icterus. She had been diagnosed as Wilson's disease for 5 years proved by family examination when her senior brother was diagnosed as this disease. She had been doing well without symptoms by taking D-penicillamine until self-discontinuation of the medication eight months ago. She presented progressive hepatic failure and hemolytic anemia and died on the 10th hospital day. The clinical course of this case is rare in Japan. Physicians, together with patients and the family, should recognize that discontinuation of therapy might result in fatal outcome in this disease.
