Abstract

A clinical review of the most probable cause of death of the poet Fernando Pessoa is made. The many times cited final diagnosis of "hepatic colic" and the limited clinical information available are considered. The spectrum of chronic alcoholism and its risks are questioned by recent advances on pathology knowledge.
