Serum predictors of native liver survival post‐Kasai: Systematic review and meta‐analysis

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives After hepatoportoenterostomy (HPE), a minority of biliary atresia (BA) patients reach adolescence without liver transplantation. Several serum markers have been suggested to better predict post‐HPE outcomes in BA patients. We aimed to identify serum predictors of native liver survival (NLS) in post‐HPE BA patients.

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 ...
