Abstract excerpt

A 38-year-old Ghanaian man presented with a 6-month history of worsening pruritus, jaundice, and ascites. He was previously fit and well and rarely drank alcohol. Screening tests for chronic liver disease including viral, autoimmune, and other metabolic causes including iron overload were unremar...
