Popis: General practitioners are frequently confronted with disturbances of the hepatic tests. It is therefore very important to be able to rule out the more usual alteration causes through basic tests such as biochemical determinations, serological tests and ultrasound examination of the liver. Other causes such as the effects of certain drugs or the presence of a coincidental pathology must be taken into account as well. Having a full-made account of the patient's clinical history as well as performing the due physical explorations is therefore most useful to this purpose. We show a case of hyperthyroidism related to amiodarone treatment as-the responsible for the disturbances of the hepatic tests.
