What is the liver disorder, biliary atresia?
This is a condition that occurs at birth. The bile ducts are either blocked or totally absent. The sites I list below, that you can click on, state that it can happen because the bile gets trapped inside the liver and can cause damage or scarring of the liver cells, known as Cirrhosis or the bile ducts may be damaged by the body’s immune system in response to a viral infection acquired at birth. http://www.cincinnatichildrens.org/svc/a… http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biliary_atr… I hope this information is of some help to you.
