A 43-year-old woman with multiple sclerosis (MS) was treated with pulsed methylprednisolone and interferon β at a hospital.Four weeks after initiating treatment,liver dysfunction occurred and she was referred and admitted to our hospital.Clinical and laboratory findings were consistent with and fulfilled the criteria for drug-induced hepatitis,but not for autoimmune hepatitis (AIH).She was successfully treated with corticosteroids.As ataxia developed after 1 year,she was treated with pulsed methylprednisolone for 3 days,then readmitted to our hospital when liver dysfunction occurred.Clinical and laboratory findings led to the diagnosis of A[H.To the best of our knowledge,this is the second case of AIH developed after pulsed methylprednisolone for MS.
