Biliary atresia (BA) is a progressive inflammatory fibrosclerosing disease of the biliary system and a major cause of neonatal cholestasis. It affects 1:5,000-20,000 live births, with the highest incidence in Asia. The pathogenesis is still unknown, but emerging research suggests a role for ciliary dysfunction, redox stress and hypoxia.

Impacts of Early Kasai Portoenterostomy on Short‐Term and Long‐Term Outcomes of Biliary Atresia
There are discrepancies regarding the clinical impact of age at Kasai portoenterostomy (KP) on surgical outcomes. Hence, we re‐assessed the clinical significance of age at KP.

The Association Between Biliary Atresia and Cytomegalovirus Infection [PDF]
Perinatal infection of cytomegalovirus (CMV) may cause cholestasis resembling biliary atresia. CMV infection is found in patients with biliary atresia. This simultaneous occurrence of biliary atresia and CMV infection prompted
