Abstract
The diagnosis and management of autoimmune hepatitis continues to evolve as new diagnostic tests and new therapies are added to the armamentarium. Also encouraging are the advances in the understanding of the human immune system and its involvement in the origin and course of auto immune diseases in general and in the variants of autoimmune liver disease. Promising changes are expected in the next few years as new medications become available to the practicing hepatologist. New immune tests may allow therapies to be customized to patients, and antiviral therapies may also eventually be used in the management of this autoimmune liver diseases.Entities:
