Biliary atresia (BA) is the most common and important neonatal hepatobiliary disorder and is seen in 1 in 8.000 to 1 in 18.000. Consequently, 70-80 % of BA patients will eventually require liver transplantation, approximately half in the first 2 y of life. Early diagnosis and therapy is essential especially for the survival of patients with biliary atresia.
