This case illustrates the peri-operative management of an Alagille patient, and highlights several key technical points that contributed to a successful resection.

“…We found three duplications of the FLCN gene, mutations of which cause Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome4 and three deletions of the NF1 gene, mutations of which cause neurofibromatosis type 1 5. In addition, we found two duplications of each of TP53 (causing Li–Fraumeni syndrome6) and JAG1 (causing Alagille syndrome7), two deletions involving the NSD1 gene (causing Sotos syndrome8) and one deletion and one partial duplication of the PTCH gene (associated with Gorlin syndrome9). Single cases of imbalance for other genes were found, as outlined in table 2.…”
