Abstract
Purpose of review: The rapid rollout and uptake of novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines has been accompanied by a small yet noticeable accumulation of reports of liver injury occurring after vaccination. This review describes the present evidence surrounding COVID-19 vaccine-induced liver injury (VILI).
Recent findings: Liver injury occurring after the COVID-19 vaccine often presents clinically similar to autoimmune hepatitis, with positive autoantibodies and a portal and lobular inflammatory infiltrate and varying degrees of necrosis on biopsy. The overwhelming majority of patients recover, often spontaneously or with a limited course of immunosuppression. The overall incidence of this phenomenon appears to be exceedingly low.
Summary: Providers should remain vigilant for ongoing reports of VILI after COVID-19 and yet feel reassured by the low incidence and high likelihood of recovery. Ongoing genetic and histological study, as well as longer-term follow-up of presently identified cases, will shed further light on the clinical entity of VILI.
