Abstract

Parenteral nutrition-associated cholestasis is a persistent problem that has been a major cause of morbidity and mortality in young neonates. This review discusses some of the more recently associated risk factors, potential etiologies, including some potential genetic causes, and discusses potential forms of therapy, including the use of ursodeoxycholic acid and cholecystokinin.
