Abstract

ABSTRACT Jaundice is a well-known condition that is commonly encountered during daily clinical practice. However, recurrent episodes of jaundice in which the unconjugated bilirubin is predominant without evidence of hemolysis have very restricted differential diagnoses, the most common of which is Gilbert’s syndrome (GS). Here, we reported a case of GS in a young adult in whom the recurrent attacks of jaundice were triggered by stressful situations. GS is a benign inherited condition that does not lead to liver cell injury; hence reassurance and avoidance of the triggering factors including a wide list of medications represent the cornerstones for the management of this condition.
