ABSTRACT

Alagille Syndrome is an unusual autosomal dominant condition that affects multiple organs and systems. In the majority of the patients it is diagnosed at a young age and its main clinical feature is chronic cholestasis due to bile duct paucity. We present the case of a pregnant woman with this unusual disorder in whom serial fetal sonography revealed renal polycystic disease and fetal growth restriction. We describe the details of the case as well as maternal and fetal outcomes.
