Abstract

Elevated liver enzymes is a common presentation in our daily clinical practice. Celiac disease and primary biliary cirrhosis are diseases of different organs. However, they share a similarity in pathogenesis. In this report, we aimed to show that there may be more than one cause of elevated liver enzymes in any patient.

Karaciğer enzim yüksekliğinde nadir birliktelik: Çölyak ve primer biliyer siroz

Abstract

Karaciğer enzim yüksekliği günlük pratikte sık karşılaştığımız bir sorundur. Çölyak hastalığı ve primer biliyer siroz farklı anatomik bölge tutulumları ile seyretse de etiopatogenez benzerliği mevcuttur. Bu olgumuzda karaciğer enzim yüksekliğinin birden fazla nedeni olabileceğini belirtmek istedik.
