Undiagnosed liver disease remains an unmet medical need in pediatric hepatology, including children with high gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) cholestasis. Here, we report whole-exome sequencing of germline DNA from 2 unrelated children, both offspring of consanguineous union, with neonatal cholestasis and...

α-Fetoprotein mRNA in situ hybridisation is a highly specific marker of hepatocellular carcinoma: a multi-centre study.
