A Case of Congenital Hepatic Fibrosis / 대한소화기내시경학회지

ABSTRACT

We experienced a case of congental hepatic fibrosis in a 21-year-old Korean male. He had frequent episodes of esophageal variceal bleeding. His liver and kidney functions were preserved. He had cystic lesions on both kidneys. A diagnosis of congenital hepatic fibrosis was made by an inferior venacavogram and peritoneoscopic liver biopsy. A Kobayashi operation was performed for esophageal varices. He had no more variceal bleeding and his general condition was good after operation.
