Recurrence of autoimmune hepatitis after liver transplantation without elevation of alanine aminotransferase

Figure 1 Clinical course and liver transplantation on March 5, 1999. Follow-up after liver trans-plantation from June 1999 to December 2005. ALT remained within a normal range after LTx. PLT was initially decreased and then increased, while IgG increased and then decreased after treatment. PLT: platelet; ALT: alanine aminotransferase; ANA : anti-nuclear antibody.
