Histopathological diagnosis of intra- and extrahepatic neonatal cholestasis.
The histopathology of the liver is fundamental for the differential diagnosis between intra- and extrahepatic causes of neonatal cholestasis. However, histopathological findings may overlap and there is disagreement among authors concerning those which could discriminate between intra- and extrahepatic cholestasis. Forty-six liver biopsies (35 wedge biopsies and 11 percutaneous biopsies) and on...
متن کاملCD 56 staining in liver biopsies does not help in differentiating extrahepatic biliary atresia from other causes of neonatal cholestasis
INTRODUCTION Several conditions are considered in differential diagnosis of neonatal cholestasis. Of these the most important is extrahepatic biliary atresia (EHBA), while prompt diagnosis and surgical correction of obstruction can ameliorate clinical symptoms, provides long term survival for about one fourth of patients and serves as an important bridge to transplantation for many others. From...
متن کاملNeonatal cholestasis and hypopituitarism 787 Neonatal cholestasis and hypopituitarism
Optic nerve hypoplasia with hypopituitarism and intact septum pellucidum is a variant of septo-optic dysplasia or deMorsier's syndrome.' Although neonatal jaundice has been seen with this syndrome, the association with severe prolonged cholestatic jaundice has not been emphasised. We describe three patients who presented with cholestatic jaundice and were found to have optic nerve hypoplasia an...
متن کاملTranshepatic percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy
We describe the case of a hepatic injury after the insertion of a PEG. In a cirrhotic woman affected by a locally advanced cancer of the pharynx, the PEG tube was inserted through the edge of the left lobe of the liver. The patient was treated with a conservative approach by managing abdominal pain and the PEG was removed after 4 months without complication. Hepatic injury is a rare complicatio...
متن کاملPercutaneous transhepatic mitral commissurotomy.
A novel, transhepatic approach to mitral valvuloplasty is described in a patient with an inferior vena caval filter. After transhepatic transseptal puncture, an Inoue dilatation catheter was passed through the hepatic parenchyma and across the atrial septum. Balloon mitral valvuloplasty was performed without complications. This approach should be considered when femoral venous access is restric...
