ABSTRACT: A 36-year-old man with severe alcoholic hepatitis was treated with plasma exchange combined with hemodiafiltration to remove endotoxins and inflammatory cytokines. During the treatment, he had critical arrhythmia (torsade de pointes [TdP]). His laboratory data showed hypomagnesemia, which was suspected to be responsible for the development of TdP. Patients with alcoholic liver disease tend to have hypomagnesemia and Q-T interval prolongation. Furthermore, hemodiafiltration may cause hypomagnesemia. Careful observation for electrolytic imbalance is necessary when clinicians treat patients with alcoholic liver failure with a liver support system.

ABSTRACT: Primary biliary cirrhosis is often associated with autoimmune conditions, such as thyroid disease, sicca complex, and rheumatoid arthritis. However, an association with autoimmune hemolytic anemia has rarely been reported. We present a case of primary biliary cirrhosis associated with warm type autoimmune hemolytic anemia, and we review prior reports.
