Abstract:
Cholestatic liver disease is the most common type of infantile liver disease,and malnutrition is very common in infantile cholestatic liver disease,which may seriously affect the growth and development of infants,and even lead to neuro-cognitive impairment.Some children with chronic cholestatic liver disease need liver transplantation at the end of the disease,while malnutrition might cause more complications and higher mortality.In order to improve the prognosis,active and appropriate nutritional management is considerably needed.
