Although abnormal liver enzymes were regularly described as an extrapulmonary clinical feature, and almost one half of patients experienced grades of hepatic injury [6] [7] [8] [9] , liver damage in patients with SARS infections was primarily manifested in the mild and moderate elevation of alanine and/or aspartate aminotransferases (ALT and AST) with some degree of hypoalbuminemia and hyperbilirubinemia during the early stage of the illness [10, 11] .
