Figure 4 Clinical course.
Serum ALT levels increased after the administration of tegafur-uracil. With liver-supporting treatment, the serum ALT levels temporarily improved. However, serum ALT levels increased again, and the patient was referred to our hospital after 8 mo. Discontinuation of tegafur-uracil combined with conservative treatment improved serum ALT levels, platelet counts, and prothrombin activity. PT%: Prothrombin time; ALT: Alanine aminotransferase.
