Late-onset Cholestasis with Paucity of Portal Area Secondary to HNF1β Deficiency in Adulthood: A Case Report.
Journal of Clinical and Translational Hepatology 2024 March 29
Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1β (HNF1β) is essential for biliary development, while its genetic defect triggers the dysplasia of interlobular bile ducts, leading to life-threatening hepatitis and cholestasis. To date, this disorder has mainly been documented in neonates. Here, we report a case of cholestasis in an adult patient caused by a de novo HNF1β mutation. A liver biopsy revealed remarkable shrinkage of the portal area accompanied by a decrease or absence of interlobular bile ducts, veins, and arteries in the portal area. Our case showed that an HNF1β defect could induce late-onset cholestasis with paucity of the portal area in adulthood.
