| Core Tip |
Cystic fibrosis (CF) liver disease is a major comorbidity in CF, complicated by progressive cholestasis and overlapping risk of drug-induced liver injury, including from CF transmembrane conductance regulator modulators. This study synthesizes literature on pathogenesis, clinical features, diagnostics, and management to aid in distinguishing advanced CF liver disease progression from drug induced liver injury. Key differentiators include biochemical profiles, imaging, treatment response, and histology. Early recognition and a multidisciplinary approach are essential to optimize therapy, preserve liver function, and balance the benefits and risks of CF transmembrane conductance regulator modulators. |
