The autoinmune hepatitis-primary biliary cirrhosis overlap syndrome is an entity characterized by clinical, analytical, immunological and histological manifestations of both entities. We present the case of a 26-year-old woman with a serious acute hepatitis that fulfills the diagnostic criteria of the overlap syndrome and that showed a satisfactory response to oral corticoid therapy.
