Forsaken Foregut: Case Report of Simultaneous Black Esophagus and Ischemic Cholangiopathy
Black esophagus or acute esophageal necrosis rarely occurs after severe hemodynamic compromise or low-flow states. Other contributing factors may include corrosive injury from gastric contents and diminished mucosal repair mechanisms.

Background & Aims: Liver and bile duct diseases often are associated with extensive cell death of cholangiocytes. Necroptosis represents a common mode of programmed cell death in cholangiopathy, however, detailed mechanistic knowledge is limited ...

Expanded NCAM1+EpCAM+ hepatic progenitor cells in biliary atresia are characterized by aggregation of α‐synuclein. This pathological protein potentiates cellular susceptibility to GSH‐dependent redox dyshomeostasis, induces unstable biliary cell fate specification, and subsequently drives aberrant biliary regeneration.

ABSTRACT Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) is classically caused by biallelic pathogenic variants, yet monoallelic variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in PFIC‐associated genes are increasingly identified in children with cholestasis, creating diagnostic uncertainty.

Abstract Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common reason for elevated liver enzymes in children in Europe, affecting more than 5% of all children. Since the last iteration of this position paper, there have been substantial advances in our understanding of the disease.

Abstract Objectives End‐stage chronic liver disease in children is associated with sarcopenia and aberrant adipose tissue mass. We investigated correlations between liver pathology‐associated gene pathways (fibrosis, inflammation and steatosis) and metabolic genes in muscle and adipose tissue.

A hepatic enigma: Pediatric presentation of primary biliary cholangitis
Abstract Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic autoimmune condition characterized by destruction of intrahepatic bile ducts, leading to fibrosis and cirrhosis of the liver. It is an extremely rare pediatric disease with very few pediatric cases reported to date. Here, we report the case of a 14‐year‐old female who presented with elevated liver

Fibrosis resulting from pathological repair secondary to recurrent or persistent tissue damage often leads to organ failure and mortality. Biliary fibrosis is a crucial but easily neglected pathological feature in hepatobiliary disorders, which may ...
