van Wessel DBE, et al. - The incidence and consequence of biliary atresia (BA) among preterm infants were contemplated in the Netherlands. A higher incidence was reported of the BA among the preterm population in contrast to the overall BA population. there appeared to be a poor outcome of BA in the study cohort, in terms of clearance of jaundice (COJ) and (transplant-free) survival. The proposition put forth was that timely detection of BA-related signs and symptoms in preterm infants would improve the prognosis.
