A woman who had been taking amiodarone--400 mg/day--for over nine years, developed cirrhosis. Electron microscopy showed phospholipid-laden lysosomal lamellar bodies containing myelin figures. A review is made about the reported cases of amiodarone-induced cirrhosis, including detailed histological findings. We conclude that periodical clinical and biochemical monitoring must be made in patients receiving treatment with amiodarone, and that the pathophysiologic mechanism responsible for the amiodarone toxicity still remains unclear.
