title: Obstructive jaundice due to inspissated bile following disseminated intravascular coagulation.
abstract: Obstructive jaundice due to inspissated bile is usually a self-limited disease caused by hemolytic disease of the newborn. We present a case where disseminated intravascular coagulation caused an obstruction of the biliary tree, requiring surgical intervention for reestablishment of bile flow.
