Perinatal cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a possible cause or trigger of biliary atresia though clinical evidence is scant. We hypothesised that CMV IgM+ve biliary atresia is a separate clinical entity compared to CMV IgM-ve biliary atresia.
Prospective single-centre study. 210 infants with histologically confirmed biliary atresia were treated in our institution (Jan. 2004 to Dec. 2011); of these 20 (9.5%) were CMV IgM+ve at presentation. We compared these with 111 infants who were CMV IgM-ve (controls) for clinical features, biochemistry at presentation and outcome following Kasai portoenterostomy (KPE). A blinded comparison of age-matched liver histology was also performed. Data are quoted as median (interquartile range). A P value ≤ 0.05 was regarded as significant.
Infants with CMV IgM+ve biliary atresia were older at Kasai portoenterostomy (or laparotomy) [70 (60-80) days vs. 56 (44-75)days; P = 0.003] and were more jaundiced [175 (147-224) vs. 140 (121-181) μmol/L; P = 0.002+ with higher AST*287 (157-403) vs. 180 (133-254) IU/L; P = 0.005] and aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet ratio index [1.1 (0.79-3.0) vs. 0.63 (0.43-0.95)] levels. Liver histology: CMV IgM+ve biliary atresia was characterised by a greater degree of inflammation (P < 0.0001) and fibrosis (P = 0.02), whereas CMV IgM-ve isolated biliary atresia had a higher degree of lobular cholestasis (P = 0.001). This effect was independent of the effects of age at KPE.
CMV IgM+ve biliary atresia had a poorer outcome with a reduced clearance of jaundice (15% vs. 52.2%; P = 0.002), native liver survival (P < 0.0001) and increased mortality (P = 0.002).
CMV IgM+ve biliary atresia is a distinct clinical and pathological entity with a diminished response to Kasai portoenterostomy.
尽管临床证据不足,但围产期巨细胞病毒(CMV)感染可能是胆道闭锁的一个病因或触发因素。我们推测,与CMV IgM阴性的胆道闭锁相比,CMV IgM阳性的胆道闭锁是一种独立的临床实体。
前瞻性单中心研究。2004年1月至2011年12月期间,我们机构对210例经组织学确诊的胆道闭锁婴儿进行了治疗;其中20例(9.5%)就诊时CMV IgM呈阳性。我们将这些患儿与111例CMV IgM阴性的婴儿(对照组)在临床特征、就诊时的生化指标以及Kasai肝门空肠吻合术(KPE)后的结局方面进行了比较。还对年龄匹配的肝脏组织学进行了盲法比较。数据以中位数(四分位间距)表示。P值≤0.05被视为具有统计学意义。
CMV IgM阳性的胆道闭锁婴儿在接受Kasai肝门空肠吻合术(或剖腹手术)时年龄更大[70(60 - 80)天 vs. 56(44 - 75)天;P = 0.003],黄疸更严重[175(147 - 224) vs. 140(121 - 181)μmol/L;P = 0.002],天冬氨酸转氨酶(AST)水平更高[287(157 - 403) vs. 180(133 - 254)IU/L;P = 0.005],天冬氨酸转氨酶与血小板比值指数也更高[1.1(0.79 - 3.0) vs. 0.63(0.43 - 0.95)]。肝脏组织学:CMV IgM阳性的胆道闭锁特征为炎症程度更高(P < 0.0001)和纤维化程度更高(P = 0.02),而CMV IgM阴性的孤立性胆道闭锁小叶胆汁淤积程度更高(P = 0.001)。这种影响独立于KPE时的年龄影响。
CMV IgM阳性的胆道闭锁结局较差,黄疸清除率降低(15% vs. 52.2%;P = 0.002),自体肝存活率降低(P < 0.0001),死亡率增加(P = 0.002)。
CMV IgM阳性的胆道闭锁是一种独特的临床和病理实体,对Kasai肝门空肠吻合术的反应较差。
