Excerpt

Enfurane is a volatile anesthetic agent with an excellent safety record which was previously widely used, but has now been replaced by more modern volatile anesthetic agents. Case series and isolated case reports of severe acute liver injury similar to halothane hepatitis attributed to enflurane have been published, but are rare.
