Patient's question:
I would like to ask if newborn jaundice requires a liver function test and surgery? What is the approximate cost?Doctor's answer:
We need to see the extent of the child's liver damage and identify the cause of the liver damage. If the child has bile duct obstruction, surgical treatment is required, otherwise it will cause serious damage to the child's liver function. My child's liver damage is caused by cytomegalovirus infection, which should not be a problem and can be treated with antiviral drugs. If there is liver damage, it is still necessary to go to the hospital for standardized treatment, and the specific cost issue varies from hospital to hospital.
