Key Words Auto immune hepatitis; Diagnosis; Liver; Epidemiology; Treatment
Core Tip Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic inflammatory liver disorder of unknown aetiology, which can lead to hepatic failure and premature death when untreated. In AIH there is no existence of a pathognomonic feature and therefore the diagnosis rests on a combination of immunological, biochemical, and histological features together with exclusion of other liver diseases. Due to large heterogeneity of the disease, AIH might be unrecognised. Immunosuppressive treatment has been the cornerstone of treatment. Such treatment is often successful at inducing remission. For most patients life long treatment is indicated. In patients in whom all treatments fail, liver transplantation remains a final option.
