We present a case of a patient who developed ALF secondary to NK\/T\u2010cell lymphoma, with the diagnosis confirmed via histopathological analysis of the explanted after liver transplantation. A 50\u2010year\u2010old woman with no significant medical history was transferred to our institution with severe acute liver injury. On admission, she exhibited drowsiness, jaundice, and hepatosplenomegaly. The patient denied alcohol use but reported consuming horsetail tea (\n                    <jats:italic>Equisetum<\/jats:italic>\n                    spp). We hypothesized drug\u2010induced liver injury as the main diagnosis, attributing to the use of horsetail tea. Despite intensive supportive care, her condition continued to deteriorate, prompting urgent deceased\u2010donor liver transplantation. Histopathological analysis of the explant revealed hepatic parenchyma infiltration by atypical lymphoid cells positive for CD2, CD3, CD8, CD56, and CD38, with Ki\u201067\u2009&gt;\u200995% and positive EBV in situ hybridization. The graft biopsy and appendix showed identical findings, confirming a high\u2010grade Stage IV extranodal NK\/T\u2010cell lymphoma (ENKTL). Given her critical condition, a modified chemotherapy regimen was initiated. Subsequent complications included severe chemotherapy\u2010induced pancytopenia, febrile neutropenia, invasive aspergillosis, and multiorgan failure, culminating in death 33\u2009days post\u2010transplant. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of rare non\u2010Hodgkin lymphoma with extranodal presentations. Although horsetail tea is associated with liver injury, its contribution to ALF remains insufficiently defined, reinforcing the importance of excluding alternative causes. ENKTL and other malignancies should be considered in indeterminate ALF, even without imaging findings, atypical lymphocytes in peripheral blood\/ascites, or overt clinical suspicion of malignancy.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/crhe\/9927354","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,14]],"date-time":"2026-01-14T09:01:50Z","timestamp":1768381310000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["An Unforeseen Diagnosis After Liver Transplantation for Acute Liver Failure: Extranodal NK\/T\u2010Cell Lymphoma"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2026","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9409-8050","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Giulia L.","family":"Soares","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4325-9760","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Beatriz B.
