False positive anti-hepatitis A virus immunoglobulin M in autoimmune hepatitis/primary biliary cholangitis overlap syndrome: A case report.

Background: Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is an immune-mediated liver disease affecting all age groups. Associations between hepatitis A virus (HAV) and AIH have been described for many years. Herein, we report a case of an AIH/primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) overlap syndrome with anti-HAV immunoglobulin M (IgM) false positivity.
