We report a case of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis with cirrhosis in a woman receiving tamoxifen as adjuvant treatment for breast cancer. Despite the presence of other risk factors for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (such as diabetes, obesity and hyperlipidemia), the patient developed non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and cirrhosis only after tamoxifen was started. We suggest that patients receiving tamoxifen, especially patients with predisposing metabolic disorders, should be evaluated for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, because progression to cirrhosis may occur.
