    Benign intra-hepatic post-operative cholestasis, characterized by jaundice, can occur after surgery and blood transfusions. This condition appears linked to increased bilirubin production and reduced liver excretion, often exacerbated by infection.

    Area of Science:

    • Hepatology
    • Gastroenterology
    • Clinical Medicine

    Background:

    • Post-operative cholestasis is a recognized complication following surgical procedures.
    • The syndrome of benign intra-hepatic post-operative cholestasis presents unique clinical challenges.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To characterize the clinical, biochemical, histological, and etiologic features of benign intra-hepatic post-operative cholestasis.
    • To investigate the contributing factors to the development of this condition.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 24 patients diagnosed with benign intra-hepatic post-operative cholestasis.
    • Evaluation of clinical presentation, laboratory results (bilirubin, liver enzymes), and liver histology.
    • Assessment of patient history including surgical procedures and blood transfusions.

    Main Results:

    • Jaundice onset occurred within 1-12 days post-operatively in all patients.
    • All patients received blood transfusions, and 23 experienced post-operative complications, primarily infection or septicemia.
    • Hyperbilirubinemia was predominantly conjugated; liver enzymes showed variable elevations, and liver histology was often normal or showed minimal changes.

    Conclusions:

    • Benign intra-hepatic post-operative cholestasis is multifactorial, resulting from increased bilirubin production (blood transfusions) and decreased hepatic excretion (surgery, infection).
    • The condition does not appear to negatively impact the final patient outcome.
    • Early identification and management of contributing factors are crucial for patient care.
