title: Liver transplantation for syndromic biliary atresia with a pedunculated accessory hepatic lobe.
abstract: Extrahepatic biliary atresia (EHBA) is the most common indication for liver transplantation in infants and children. Congenital malformations associated with EHBA are common and present in about 9%-37%. We describe a case of a child who received a left lobe liver transplant for syndromic EHBA.
