[Cholestatic hepatitis as a ticlopidine-induced complication of treatment - a case report].
Ticlopidine, a thienopyridine derivative, is widely used in Poland in vascular procedures. Ticlopidine-induced acute cholestatic hepatitis is a very rare adverse reaction. We present a case of a patient with possible ticlopidine-induced cholestatic hepatitis occurring a few days after introducing this drug.
