Overview

The authors describe a case of hereditary fructose intolerance in 15-months old boy with hepatomegaly and ongoing liver failure. The underlying infectious and noninfectious etiology of hepatopathy were excluded. However, urine chromatography proved fructosuria. Hepatomegaly and the signs of liver failure promptly relieved on fructose-free diet.
