“…Until recently, it was thought that FIC1 disease resulted from a primary deficiency in bile salt secretion from the liver (4,5), but there is increasing evidence that other tissues play a role in this disease. The cholestasis completely resolved in two PFIC1 patients after biliary diversion (21) and in several patients treated by liver transplantation (18), but the children displayed severe diarrhea, failure to achieve catch-up growth, and appearance of steatosis in the new liver (20). Interestingly, many FIC1 disease patients also develop pancreatitis (33)(34)(35)(36)(37).…”

“…Our hypothesis is possibility of progression to PFIC. Occasionally BRIC will progress to the more severe and permanent form of PFIC, indicative of a clinical continuum, with intermediate phenotypes between mild and progressive disease [17][18][19]. Another hypothesis is a long duration of attack.…”
