Abstract
In children, autoimmune liver diseases can manifest in a variety of forms, including autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), and the co-occurrence of AIH and PSC - the “overlap syndrome.” Early recognition of overlap syndrome is important. Diagnosis of sclerosing cholangitis largely depends on the cholangiographic picture showing single or multiple strictures with dilatation of the biliary tract. The problems of etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of overlap syndrome in children are shown. A clinical example of seronegative autoimmune hepatitis and sclerosing cholangitis as part of a cross syndrome in a child is given.
