    Abstract:
    The intrahepatic cholestasis is not an common syndrome, in particular way in people between 50 and 60 years of age. It is often unknown or confused, because of itching, with allergic or dermatologic diseases. The most frequent causes of intrahepatic cholestasis are primary sclerosing cholestasis, primary biliary cirrhosis and hepatic cirrhosis. The pathogenetic mechanism is the faulty secretion of bile and, more bile salts. The diagnosis is allowed by anamnesis, objective examination and, above all, biochemical markers of cholestasis, echography, TC, NMR and liver biopsy. Therapy consist of generic (hypolipidic diet, liposoluble vitamin and others) and specific (UDCA, SAMe) measures.
