The potential hepatotoxicity of herbal remedies and/or health foods is usually ignored in daily life. There have been cases showing the toxic hepatitis and renal failure associated with the ingestion of raw carp bile. We experienced a case of toxic hepatitis without any evidence of renal failure that was associated with carp juice ingestion. The clinical manifestations were characterized by nausea and vomiting after the ingestion of carp juice for 3 months. The diagnosis of toxic hepatitis was made on the basis of the patient's history, laboratory data, RUCAM (Russel Uclaf Causality Assessment) and the results of ultrasonography guided liver biopsy. The patient showed rapid improvement after instituting supportive therapy.

Recently, the cases of acute hepatitis of unknown etiology (AHUE) in children worldwide have been increasing continuously and rapidly, involving more than 396 cases in 26 countries, and global public health actions, including surveillance, health alerts, research, are being implemented. AHUE mainly affects immunocompetent children with typical acute hepatitis, which can be severe and require liver transplantation. There are few systematic studies at present; the risk factors are unknown, the etiology remains to be established, and the clinical features and pathogenesis remain elucidated. It is urgent to strengthen the monitoring and research of AHUE cases.
