In this online, self-learning activity: In this online, self-learning activity: Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) is comprised of a group of liver diseases notable for high serum bile salt concentrations and serum bilirubin levels in neonates. It is caused by autosomal recessive mutations in the genes that encode proteins expressed mainly in the bile acid membrane of the hepatocytes and alters hepatocytic bile secretion. PFIC accounts for approximately 9% 13% of cases of neonatal cholestasis liver failure or splenomegaly(2,5,6) and 10% 15% of liver transplantation (LT) cases in childhood.
