Abstract excerpt
Identifying rare genetic forms of infantile cholestasis is challenging due to their similar clinical presentation and their diverse etiology. After exclusion of common non-genetic causes a huge list of rare differential diagnosis remains to be solved. More than 90 genes are associated with monogenic forms of infantile cholestasis, thus preventing routine genetic workup by Sanger sequencing. Here we demonstrate a...
