Neonatal cholestasis due to citrin deficiency: diagnostic pitfalls.

: Citrin deficiency can manifest in newborns or infants as neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency (NICCD). The paper presents a case of Polish NICCD patient presenting with low birth weight, failure to thrive, prolonged cholestatic jaundice with coagulopathy and hypoalbuminemia with normal results of MS/MS newborn screening but with high blood citrulline level observed at 3 months of age. Unreported findings included N-hypoglycosylation and increased serum very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFA), probably secondary to liver impairment. Final diagnosis was established based on whole-exome sequencing (WES) analysis.
