Abstract:

Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) represents a heterogenous group of rare autosomal recessive liver disorders characterized by impaired bile secretion, leading to progressive cholestasis and potentially end-stage liver disease. PFIC type 4, caused by mutations in the TJP2 gene, is a particularly uncommon subtype.
