Alagille syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant disorder with variable expression. Liver damage, especially cholestatic, is the most common feature of the syndrome. Transgender patients may suffer from a great distress due to the discrepancy between assigned sex at birth and unaffirmed gender identity. Gender affirmation treatment options for these patients include hormone therapy (HT) to induce secondary sexual characteristics and various surgical procedures. Estrogen-based hormonal treatments have been linked to an increased risk of liver enzyme elevation and disruption of bilirubin metabolism, especially in those with a genetic susceptibility. The case presented here is the first described Alagille syndrome transgender patient to undergo gender affirmation treatment, including (HT) and vulvo-vaginoplasty surgery.
阿拉吉列综合征是一种罕见的常染色体显性疾病,具有可变表达。肝损伤,尤其是胆汁淤积,是该综合征最常见的特征。跨性别患者可能会因出生时指定的性别与未确认的性别认同之间的差异而遭受极大痛苦。这些患者的性别肯定治疗选择包括激素疗法(HT)以诱导第二性征以及各种外科手术。基于雌激素的激素治疗与肝酶升高和胆红素代谢紊乱的风险增加有关,尤其是在那些具有遗传易感性的患者中。本文介绍的病例是首例接受性别肯定治疗(包括激素疗法和外阴阴道成形术)的阿拉吉列综合征跨性别患者。
