ACG Case Rep J
October 2024
Article Synopsis
- The case centers on a 33-year-old man suffering from biliary atresia, Wilson disease (WD), and iron overload, all of which impact liver function.
- Biliary atresia can lead to serious liver issues like cirrhosis if not treated, while WD causes copper build-up due to genetic mutations affecting the liver and brain.
- The combination of these conditions complicates treatment, necessitating careful monitoring, a thorough medical history, and genetic testing to manage the patient's health effectively.
