Neonatal Hepatitis

Neonatal hepatitis refers to inflammation of the liver in newborns, which can be caused by various factors. It is a serious condition that requires prompt diagnosis and management to prevent complications and ensure optimal outcomes for the infant. Neonatal hepatitis presents with symptoms including jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), hepatomegaly (enlarged liver), poor feeding or weight gain, abdominal distention, and changes in urine and stool color. Diagnosis involves a comprehensive approach starting with medical history and physical examination, followed by blood tests to assess liver function (e.g., bilirubin, ALT, AST, and ALP), viral serologies for infections like Hepatitis B and C, and genetic testing if a genetic or metabolic disorder is suspected. Imaging studies, such as ultrasound, are used to evaluate liver size and structure, and a liver biopsy may be performed to assess tissue inflammation or damage.

Neonatal hepatitis is a complex condition with a range of potential causes. Early diagnosis, appropriate management, and ongoing follow-up are essential to improve outcomes and support the infant’s health and development.
