| Core Tip |
Although congenital portosystemic shunts causing Abernethy syndrome are rare, the disease is complex, with the possibility of severe multi-organ complications. Searching for the congenital condition should therefore be included in the extended work-up of a newborn with other congenital, especially vascular malformations, neonatal cholestasis or hypergalactosemia. Furthermore, Abernethy syndrome should also be considered in older children presenting with pulmonary arterial hypertension, hyperammonemia and elevated liver enzymes. Additionally, according to our experience, a congenital portosystemic shunt should be considered in the differential diagnosis of children with unexplained hypoglycaemic episodes, gastrointestinal bleeding and osteoporosis with fat-soluble vitamin deficiency. |
