Question 1 of 5

Walter, a teenage patient, is admitted to the hospital because of acetaminophen (Tylenol) overdose. Overdoses of acetaminophen can precipitate life-threatening abnormalities in which of the following organs?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Liver. Acetaminophen overdose can lead to severe liver damage due to the production of a toxic metabolite that overwhelms the liver's detoxification mechanisms. This can result in liver failure, which is life-threatening. The other organs listed (lungs, kidney, adrenal glands) are not typically affected by acetaminophen overdose.
Therefore, the correct answer is the liver, as it is the primary organ impacted in cases of acetaminophen toxicity.
