| Popis: | Alagille syndrome (arteriohepatic dysplasia) is a major cause of intrahepatic cholestasis in infancy. The present report describes a patient with Alagille syndrome who presented with hematuria and IgA nephritis 7 years after an orthotopic liver transplantation and immunosuppression. This patient suggests that glomerular lipidosis is not an inherent feature of the Alagille syndrome, and that IgA nephritis may develop in spite of ongoing immunosuppressive treatment. |
