AI Article Synopsis
- * For USS patients who have a persistent patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) and repeat episodes of hemolysis and thrombocytopenia, the blood flow through the PDA may be a contributing factor.
- * Understanding these conditions can help in identifying triggers and managing symptoms in affected newborns.
Article Abstract
One third of patients with USS have a neonatal episode of severe hemolytic jaundice with thrombocytopenia induced by an unknown trigger. A USS patient with persisting PDA and recurrent neonatal hemolysis/thrombocytopenia suggests blood flow through the PDA as trigger.

Malignant obstructive jaundice (MOJ) encompasses a range of diseases stemming from malignant tumors such as cholangiocarcinoma, pancreatic cancer, and primary liver cancer, among others, which cause obstruction in both intra- and extra-hepatic bile ducts. This obstruction may lead to elevated bilirubin levels, hepatic function impairment, and a low rate of successful surgical resection in clinical settings. There are various minimally invasive treatment options for MOJ, including endoscopic biliary drainage, ultrasound-guided procedures, and percutaneous biliary tract puncture drainage.
