Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>The rare genetic liver condition known as Progressive Familial Intrahepatic Cholestasis (PFIC) presents early-onset cholestasis while medical teams frequently mistake the condition so that it receives an incorrect diagnosis because PFIC shares clinical signs with multiple other medical issues. A 9-month-old infant from a limited-resource community was first misdiagnosed with galactosemi...
