As reported in 1974, the initial experience at the Oklahoma Children's Memorial Hospital with the Kasai procedure for biliary atresia was unsatisfactory. A subsequent series of 20 patients, in which 50% of the patients are alive and improved and 25% jaundice-free, is described.

Abstract An infant with biliary atresia had normal‐range (‘low’) serum gamma‐glutamyltranspeptidase (GGT) activity, exceptional because GGT generally is elevated in biliary atresia. Mechanisms underlying low‐GGT cholestasis in biliary atresia are not defined, but the phenomenon is associated with worse clinical outcome.
