  • Title: A puzzling jaundice.
    Author: Pometta R, Fraquelli AC, Losco A, Conte D.
    Journal: Dig Liver Dis; 2003 Feb; 35(2):114-7. PubMed ID: 12747630.
    Abstract:
    In an adult beta-thalassaemic patient admitted on account of the sudden onset of nausea, vomiting and biliary pain, the concomitant jaundice was considered "obstructive" on the basis of ultrasonographic evidence of cholecysto-choledocal stones. However, when the patient was re-evaluated it was found that concomitant Gilbert's disease, hepatitis C virus related cirrhosis and dilated cardiomyopathy had a detrimental effect on clinical and laboratory findings.
