description | Autoimmune Hepatitis (AIH) and Primary Biliary Cirrhosis (PBC) are important immune mediated liver diseases. They are usually differentiated
based on clinical, biochemical, serological and histological parameters. The presence of autoantibodies, clinical and serological findings
can sometimes occur in different combinations leading to overlap syndromes, which is rare. Early recognition of such overlap syndromes
is clinically significant from treatment point of view. Here, we report a case of AIH-PBC overlap syndrome with a brief review of literature
on overlap syndromes. |
