Popis: | Two cases in siblings which satisfy the requirements of Dubin and Johnson for chronic idiopathic jaundice are presented. The familial nature of the disease had been suspected but not heretofore proved. The etiology of the syndrome is still doubtful but appears to be a selective inability of the liver to excrete certain substances. The identity of the coarse brown centrolobular pigment is still in question. The availability of fresh liver tissue has added a strongly positive oil red 0 reaction to those histochemical reactions previously obtained. |
