Abstract

A patient who died of hepatic failure nearly 29 years after hepatic portojejunostomy is reported. His death may be attributed to several faults in treatment. From our experiences it can be said that biliary atresia is a curable disease, although liver-transplantation is required in some patients in whom hepato portoenterostomy is unsuccessful.
