Extractions: 4 February 2003 Disease characteristics. Alagille syndrome is characterized by potentially life-threatening involvement of the liver and heart and by skeletal, ophthalmological, and facial changes that may not be medically significant but can be useful in diagnosis. Hepatic involvement typically presents in the first three months of life as cholestasis, jaundice, and pruritis with a paucity of bile ducts observed histologically; some patients develop liver failure. The most common cardiac manifestations are peripheral and branch pulmonic stenosis (67% of patients) and tetralogy of Fallot (7-16%). Posterior embryotoxon (prominent Schwalbe's ring) of the eye and butterfly vertebrae do not cause symptoms. Diagnosis/testing. The diagnosis of Alagille syndrome is primarily based on clinical findings. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) detects a microdeletion of 20p12, including the entire

ALAGILLE SYNDROME
alagille syndrome is an inherited disorder that mimics other formsof prolonged liver disease seen in infants and young children.
http://www.gastro.com/html/liverdisease/alagillesyndrome.shtml

Extractions: Alagille syndrome is an inherited disorder that mimics other forms of prolonged liver disease seen in infants and young children. However, a group of unusual features in other organ systems distinguishes Alagille syndrome from other liver and bile duct diseases in infants. Children with Alagille Syndrome usually have a liver disease characterized by a progressive loss of the bile ducts within the liver over the first year of life and narrowing of bile ducts outside the liver. This leads to a buildup of bile in the liver, causing damage to liver cells. Scarring may occur and lead to cirrhosis in about 30 to 50 percent of affected children. Symptoms of the illness are jaundice, pale, loose stools and poor growth within the first three months of life. Later there is persistent jaundice, itching, fatty deposits in the skin and stunted growth and development during early childhood. Frequently, the disease stabilizes between ages 4 and 10 with an improvement in symptoms. Other features which help establish the diagnosis include abnormalities in the cardiovascular system, the spinal column, the eye and the kidneys. Narrowing of the blood vessel connecting the heart to the lungs (pulmonary artery) leads to extra heart sounds but rarely to problems in heart function. The shape of the bones of the spinal column may look like a butterfly's wings on X-ray but almost never cause problems with function of the nerves in the spinal cord.

Extractions: M.D, DCH(Gold Medalist), FCPS, DNB Key words:- Arteriohepatic dysplasia , chronic cholestasis, pulmonary artery hypoplasia Introduction: Case :- 18 month old male child BONCM to normal parents presented with jaundice since 2 months of age, clay colored stools with high colored urine, and pruritis since l year. Patient was noticed to have cyanosis, which increased, on crying. He had dysmorphic features in form of deep-seated eyes, with prominent forehead and small pointed chin. Patient had hepatomegaly with 5cm palpable liver. He also had an ejection systolic murmur with soft and single second heart sound suggestive of tetralogy of fallot physiology. Patient was clinically diagnosed as a case of Arteriohepatic dysplasia or Alagille syndrome . 2 D echo showed subvalvalar pulmonary stenosis with left pulmonary artery not seen. USG Abdomen was suggestive of gall bladder sludge with hepatomegaly. His liver enzymes were elevated. There was hyperbilirubinemia with increased direct compound (2.4mg% D= 1.2 mg%). Serum cholesterol (316 mg%) and Triglyceride (352 mg%) were markedly elevated. Liver scan (HIDA) showed decreased excretion. Patient was advised cardiac catheterisation to assess the anatomical malformation and evaluate further treatment. Liver biopsy was not undertaken in this patient. He was treated with fat soluble vitamins, cholestyramine, ureodeoxycholic acid. His pruritis markedly subsided with above management. He was started on T. Propranalol for his cyanotic heart disease and discharged. He was advised surgery for heart disease and option for liver transplantation was explained.

Extractions: Alagille syndrome is a rare inherited condition of arteriohepatic dysplasia usually recognized within the first year of life. Jaundice and cholestasis resulting from biliary tract hypoplasia are the predominant features. Alagille syndrome may result in long-term complications including cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and pancreatic insufficiency. Hemochromatosis is also a genetic disorder characterized by increased gut iron absorption. Eventually there can be iron deposition in several areas including the liver, heart, and pancreas leading to organ dysfunction. Until now, there have been no reports of a patient with both Alagille syndrome and hemochromatosis.

However, a group of unusual features in other organ systems distinguishes Alagille syndrome from other liver and bile duct diseases in infants. It is also known as arteriohepatic dysplasia. (Back to Top) Children with Alagille syndrome usually have a liver disease characterized by a progressive loss of the bile ducts within the liver over the first year of life and narrowing of bile ducts outside the liver. This leads to a buildup of bile in the liver, causing damage to liver cells. Scarring may occur and lead to cirrhosis in about 30 to 50 percent of affected children. (Back to Top) Alagille syndrome is generally inherited from one parent and there is a 50 percent chance that each child will develop the syndrome. Each affected adult or child may have all or only a few of the features of the syndrome. Frequently, a parent or brother or sister of the affected child will share the facial appearance, heart murmur or butterfly vertebrae, but have a completely normal liver and bile ducts.
