An Unusual Cause of Cholestasis in an Infant: Biliary Atresia Type IIB
Biliary atresia (BA) is a progressive destructive cholangiopathy of unknown etiology that presents in early infancy. It has a worldwide frequency of 1:8,000–1:15,000 and is common in Asia than in the west. Based on the level at which the lumen of the extrahepatic duct is obliterated, BA is classifie...
