[The nomenclature and typing of drug-induced liver changes. The opinion of a group of pathologists].
A working group of histopathologists with specialised liver training has established guidelines for a nomenclature of drug-induced liver lesions. It is recommended to use the term of drug-induced hepatitis for all cases of virus hepatitis-like picture. The most frequent type is that of hepatitis with confluent necrosis. This type of hepatitis was subdivided into three subtypes of diagnostic probability for differential diagnosis versus virus hepatitis.
