Clinical Variability After Partial External Biliary Diversion in Familial Intrahepatic Cholestasis 1 Deficiency

Abstract: Clinical variability is evident among genetically defined FIC1 deficient patients after PEBD, even among those with identical mutations. Recurrent, self-limited episodes of cholestasis and pruritus are reminiscent of the benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis phenotype. Despite diversion of bile from the intestinal lumen, weight gain improved while fat-soluble vitamin requirements persisted. Significant progression of liver disease was not evident during follow-up.

“…After successful drainage procedures, some patients develop bouts of cholestasis that can last months, akin to benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis. (35) As such, the timing of DXA scanning relative to intermittent cholestasis events could affect the DXA findings.…”

“…Limited numbers of participants who underwent biliary diversion precluded sub-analysis of bile flow after the procedure with regard to clinical response and vitamin D status. After successful drainage procedures, some patients develop bouts of cholestasis that can last months, akin to BRIC (35). As such, the timing of DXA scanning relative to intermittent cholestasis events could affect the DXA findings.…”

“…When medical therapy is insufficient, surgical intervention may be considered with the goal of bypassing the enterohepatic circulation and/or decreasing reabsorption of bile salts (Figure 2). Procedures including partial external biliary diversion (PEBD), partial internal biliary diversion, and ileal exclusion have generally, though not uniformly, resulted in sustained clinical improvement in PFIC patients[14-16]. A large surgical experience has been described in FIC1 deficiency[14-16].…”

“…Partial biliary diversion was first used by Whittington et al for the reversal of intractable pruritus in patients with intrahepatic cholestasis. In the literature, there are multiple reports confirming the benefit of biliary diversion (internal or external) in non‐cirrhotic PFIC‐1 patients for improved biochemistry, histological regression of fibrosis, and overall clinical improvement . The exact mechanism for this benefit is unknown.…”
