Abstract

Syndromic paucity of bile ducts or "Alagille syndrome" is characterized by peculiar facies, chronic cholestasis, posterior embryotoxon, butterfly-like vertebral arch defects and peripheral pulmonary artery hypoplasia or stenosis. We present a two-year-old female child with the 'partial' or 'incomplete' Alagille syndrome. The child had three of the five major features of the syndrome. A brief review of literature of the syndrome is presented.
