title: [Retrograde cholangiopancreatography in the diagnosis of Alagille's syndrome].
abstract: The present report deals with an 11-year-old boy affected by Alagille's Syndrome. He presented hepatic ductular hypoplasia without any other associated malformation and with forward evolution to cirrhosis. The diagnosis was made by hepatobiliary scanning with Tc99 HIDA and by Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), because it was impossible to execute liver biopsy.
