Patient's question:
My child's complexion was very yellow right after birth, and their eyes were also yellow, with white stools. When I went to the hospital, they were diagnosed with neonatal biliary atresia. I would like to ask, can this disease be cured?Doctor's answer:
Neonatal biliary atresia is a common liver disease in clinical practice, which can be congenital or caused by insufficient blood supply around the bile ducts or infection. The affected infants may exhibit jaundice of the skin and sclera, clay-like stools, and in severe cases, hepatosplenomegaly, ascites, and other symptoms. The current best treatment methods are surgical intervention or liver transplantation. Surgical treatment can lead to a cure.
