Abstract

After analysis of 33 cases of neonatal hepatitis and 90 cases of biliary atresia, a score test from history, physical findings and daily laboratory examinations was studied for the differential diagnosis of these two diseases. The biliary atresia takes plus score, whereas the neonatal hepatitis takes minus score. The score test is of great value for the differential diagnosis between these two diseases.
