Abstract

Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency is a hereditary disease leading to hepatitis and cirrhosis. It is the most common genetic cause of liver disease in children which must inherit the tendency from both parents to develop. It acquires the highest priority in the differential diagnosis in a child with chronic liver disease. In this case report we substantiate the role of serum protein electrophoresis, in diagnosing alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency.

Keywords: Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency; Serum protein electrophoresis
