APPROACH TO JAUNDICE Mentor : Prof . Dr. Dinesh Kumar Lamsal Presented By: Dr. Chudamani Neupane MD( GP &EM )Resident Rapti Academy Of Health Sciences

CONTENTS Introduction Bilirubin Production and Metabolism Approach Isolated elevation of serum bilirubin Elevation of serum bilirubin with other liver test abnormalities Special considerations with jaundice Summary

Introduction

Pathophysiology

Approach

Isolated hyperbilirubinemia

FEATURE CRIGGLER NAJJAR 1 CRIGGLER NAJJER 2 GILBERT’S SYNDROME UDPGT 0% 10% 33% MODE OF INHERITANCE AR AR AR,AD TOTAL BILIRUBIN >20 mg/ dL 6-20 mg/ dL <6 mg/ dL KERNICTERUS common rare absent MORTALITY < 1yr adulthood N LIVER BIOPSY N N Black brown TREATMENT Liver transplantation phenobarbitone No

FEATURE DUBLIN JOHNSON SYNDROME ROTOR SYNDROME CAUSE MRP-2 OATP1B1, 1B3 MODE OF INHERITANCE AR AR SERUM BILIRUBIN < 5mg/ dL < 5mg/ dL KERNICTERUS - - MORTALITY N N INVESTIGATION No clearance of dye Liver biopsy-black Delayed N TREATMENT Not required Not required

Increased S. Bilirubin with other tests abnormal

Hepatocellular conditons

Cholestasis - Intrahepatic

Cholestasis - Extrahepatic

Features of prehepatic jaundice Triad of anemia , Jaundice , spleenomegaly According to hemolytic anemia – malaria, autoimmune hemolytic anemia

Features of hepatocellular jaundice Anorexia, nausea , vomiting, weakness Stool is yellow( but may be dark,clay colored in later stages due to intrahepatic cholestasis ) Liver is enlarged , tender

Features of obstructive jaundice Pale, dark/clay colored stool Itching of whole body May be abdominal pain , mass in epigastrium Other features depend upon ( xanthelasma / xanthoma in PBC) Bleeding tendency Bone pain

Special considerations

Fluctuating jaundice Choledocholithiasis Choledochal cyst Hemolytic jaundice Wilson’s disease Gilbert’s syndrome Benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis Recurrent pancreatitis Primary sclerosing cholangitis

Progressive jaundce Acute viral hepatitis Carcinoma of head of pancreas Cholangiocarcinoma Primary biliary cirrhosis Primary sclerosing cholangitis

Recurrent Jaundice Congenital Hyperbilirubinemia Recurrent benign cholestasis

Palpable gall bladder with jaundice Carcinoma of head of pancreas Carcinoma of ampulla of vater Stone in common bile duct Pressure from outside on bile duct Cholangiocarcinoma Sclerosing cholangitis

Painless progressive jaundice with palpable gall bladder Carcinoma of head of pancreas

Abdominal pain with fluctuating jaundice Stone in CBD or stricture pancreatitis

Jaundice with itching Obstructive jaundice Primary biliary cirrhosis
