title: [Cholestatic form of viral hepatitis and thickening of the walls of the intrahepatic bile ducts].
abstract: A biphasic acute hepatitis A is reported in a child. The cholestatic form of the second episode was associated with an ultrasonographic thickening of the gallbladder and intrahepatic bile duct walls. A possible relationship between the abnormal US appearance of intrahepatic bile ducts and cholestasis is discussed.
