Abstract
In the December issue of Pediatrics, Dr. Lucey discussed the usefulness of liver biopsy in the management of children with undiagnosed or complicated liver disease. He coneludes that in the proper hands liver biopsy can be a safe and helpful procedure. This is probably true. Any physician interested in acquiring this skill could, presumably, do so in a short period of time whether he is at a medical center or small community hospital. There is one aspect of liver biopsy that Dr. Lucey alluded to but did not clarify.
