Advances in understanding of biliary atresia pathogenesis and progression – a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma

Expert Review of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 2023
Introduction Biliary atresia is a potentially fatal condition of the bile ducts – both intra- and extrahepatic, for which we have no cure. Though principally a cholestatic condition, much of its pathology stems from its tendency to aggressively induce ...

Serum matrix metalloproteinase‐7 in biliary atresia: A Japanese multicenter study

Hepatology Research, 2022
Biliary atresia (BA) is among the commonest indications for liver transplantation (LT) in children. We examined whether serum matrix metalloproteinase‐7 (MMP‐7) is useful for diagnosis of BA in Japanese infants, and whether serum MMP‐7 concentrations ...

Update on etiology and pathogenesis of biliary atresia.

Current pediatric reviews, 2022
Biliary atresia is a rare inflammatory sclerosing obstructive cholangiopathy that initiates in infancy as complete choledochal blockage and progresses to the involvement of intrahepatic biliary epithelium.

Biliary atresia

Seminars in Neonatology, 2003
Biliary atresia (BA) is a congenital obliterative cholangiopathy of unknown aetiology, affecting both the intra- and extrahepatic bile ducts. Although relatively rare, BA must be excluded in any infant with conjugated hyperbilirubinaemia since the prognosis is improved by early diagnosis and prompt surgery.

Biliary Atresia

Pediatrics In Review, 1989
Biliary atresia is a pathologic entity in which there is obliteration of some portion of the extrahepatic bile ducts. In the past, occlusion of the proximal ducts (at the liver hilus) was referred to as "noncorrectable" (Fig 1). If only the distal duct is occluded (and the proximal duct is patent), the lesion was referred to as "correctable." The ...

Biliary atresia

The Lancet, 2009
Biliary atresia is a rare disease of infancy, which has changed within 30 years from being fatal to being a disorder for which effective palliative surgery or curative liver transplantation, or both, are available. Good outcomes for infants depend on early referral and timely Kasai portoenterostomy, and thus a high index of suspicion is needed for ...

Biliary Atresia

2021
Biliary Atresia (BA) affects approximately 1:20,000 babies and is the most frequent cause of surgical jaundice in children. BA presents in the first few weeks of life with pale stools and dark urine in otherwise healthy infants. It is the end result of a destructive inflammatory process of the bile ducts, with unclear origins.

Biliary atresia

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1997
Biliary atresia, a progressive obliterative process involving the bile ducts, has its onset in the newborn period. It is characterized by worsening cholestasis, hepatic fibrosis, and cirrhosis, which lead to portal hypertension and a decline in hepatic synthetic function. Untreated, the outcome is uniformly fatal.

Anatomical patterns of biliary atresia including hepatic radicles at the porta hepatis influence short‐ and long‐term prognoses

Journal of hepato-biliary-pancreatic sciences, 2021
The biliary atresia (BA) inflammatory process leads to various obstructive patterns of extrahepatic biliary trees. The significance of the various BA obstructive patterns is unclear.
