Pathomorphology of congenital liver fibrosis in children

Pathomorphology of congenital liver fibrosis (CLF) was studied basing on histological evaluation of 42 primary and secondary liver biopsies obtained from 26 CLF children aged 1-13. CLF age-specific complications, their variants and incidence rate as well as morphogenesis are outlined, e. g. cholangiolitis and secondary cirrhosis which are not rare in 7-13-year-old children. Presented is CLF staging.
