ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Fish gallbladder has long been used as a folk remedy in Asian countries. Multiple organ damage after ingestion of fish gallbladder resulting in near mortality has been known to us. Here, we describe a case of acute renal failure (ARF) and hepatitis due to grass carp gallbladder poisoning and review the literature.

CASE SUMMARY: A previously healthy, 50-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with a 2-d history of generalized abdominal pain and repeated vomiting following ingestion of two raw grass carp gallbladders in an attempt to alleviate her cough. She developed anuria on day 4 with markedly elevated serum creatinine, urea, bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase, and aspartate aminotransferase. Based on thorough evaluation of her history and prompt biochemical investigations, we diagnosed her with ARF and hepatitis secondary to fi sh gallbladder poisoning. Her renal biopsy revealed acute tubular necrosis, following which she underwent six sessions of conventional hemodialysis due to renal failure. Supportive treatment with gastric mucosal protectant and liver protectant was administered for targeted organ protection. The patient's liver function gradually recovered, and serum creatinine was 164 mmol/L at discharge on day 24. Over a follow-up period of 2 wk, her renal function completely recovered.

CONCLUSION: Physicians should be mindful of toxic complications of raw grass carp gallbladder ingestion and we should promote awareness to reduce incidences of food poisoning.
