Patient's question:
The other day, when I took my child for a physical examination, the doctor said my child suffers from biliary atresia type III. What are the symptoms of this disease, what kind of tests should be done to help the body recover quickly, and what should be paid attention to in terms of diet?Doctor's answer:
This type of biliary atresia is often associated with infectious diseases and can also cause obstructive jaundice. In later stages, it may lead to liver cirrhosis, which is a serious complication. Timely surgical treatment in early childhood can yield very positive outcomes. Postoperatively, it is important to ensure a proper recovery period. Avoid infection of the wound at all costs to prevent the occurrence of other adverse symptoms. Pay attention to nutritional intake to help the child regain good physical strength.
