Trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole is well known to cause intra-hepatic cholestasis which in rare instances can be prolonged and lead to vanishing bile duct syndrome. The risk regarding the potential for cross-reactivity between structurally related molecules such as dapsone and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole in causing hepatotoxicity is scarce. Herein, we report a case of vanishing bile duct syndrome following dapsone use in a patient with HIV infection and a recent history of trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole-induced cholestasis.

We present a case of a 7-year-old boy who had cholestasis after trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole combination therapy. Liver biopsy was performed 36 days after the onset of jaundice because of no evidence of improving cholestasis. Liver histology revealed portal inflammation, bile plug, and biliary stasis around the central vein with the loss of the interlobular bile ducts.
