    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Gastroenterology
    • Infectious Diseases

    Background:

    • Jaundice is a common clinical sign in children, necessitating a thorough diagnostic workup.
    • Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are prevalent in pediatric populations and can present with diverse symptoms.

    Observation:

    • An 8-year-old girl presented with jaundice as the primary symptom.
    • The jaundice was associated with a diagnosed urinary tract infection caused by Escherichia coli.

    Findings:

    • Resolution of the Escherichia coli UTI led to the complete clearance of jaundice.
    • This case highlights a potential link between bacterial UTI and cholestatic jaundice in children.

    Implications:

    • Urine culture should be considered in the diagnostic evaluation of pediatric patients presenting with unexplained jaundice.
    • Early identification and management of UTIs may prevent or resolve jaundice in affected children.
