A case of autoimmune hepatitis in a patient with inflammatory bowel disease and significant lymphadenopathy in the porta hepatis

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract The diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is supported by the presence of elevated transaminases, hypergammaglobulinemia, liver biopsy consistent with AIH, and the presence of AIH autoantibodies. In this case presentation, we highlight the challenges associated with diagnosing AIH in a patient with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who ...
