Adulthood Benign Recurrent Intrahepatic Cholestasis: An Intriguing Entity

Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 5

Abstract

Abstract: Benign Recurrent Intrahepatic Cholestasis (BRIC) is a rare disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of cholestasis without causing any permanent liver damage. The first attack of jaundice in patients of BRIC is usually seen before the second decade of life. Here we report an interesting case of recurrent cholestatic jaundice who was diagnosed to have acute viral hepatitis on all the previous occasions before the final diagnosis of BRIC was made.
