Article Synopsis
- Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a long-term liver disease caused by the body's immune system attacking the liver, and its cause is not fully understood.
- If untreated, AIH can lead to serious complications like cirrhosis, liver failure, or death, but many patients do respond to initial treatments.
- Some patients do not respond well to first-line therapies, which leads to the need for second- or third-line treatments, and ongoing research is focused on new ways to treat AIH effectively.
