Overview
Biliary atresia, is a congenital or acquired disease of the liver and one of the principal forms of chronic rejection of a transplanted liver allograft.
In the congenital form, the common bile duct between the liver and the small intestine is blocked or absent.
The acquired type most often occurs in the setting of autoimmune disease, and is one of the principal forms of chronic rejection of a transplanted liver allograft.
