Abstract

Aspartateaminotransferase(AST)macroen-zyme leads to an increase in AST without the presence of any disease. In present report, an isolated increase of AST was detected in a 6-year old girl following the inves-tigations prior to tonsillectomy. As to her history, physical examination and other laboratory test results, no abnor-mal findings were detected. AST levels were measured as 591 IU/L and 585 IU/L after repeated tests. While found as

Özet

Aspartat aminotransferaz (AST) makroenzimi her-hangi bir hastalık olmadan AST'de yükselmeye neden olur. Bu çalışmada 6 yaşında bir kız operasyon öncesi yapılan incelemeler sonrası izole AST yükseklği sap-tanmıştır. Anamnez fizik muayene ve diğer laboratuvar testlerindeanormalbirverisaptanmamıştır.Yapılantekrar ölçümler sonucunda 591 ve 585 U/L saptanmış-tır. PEG çöktürme sonrası AST
