摘要：

Liver diseases which affect children are unique. Diseases such as inborn errors of metabolism are fertile grounds for investigation. Study of these 'experiments of nature' will provide insight into hepatobiliary function and lead to novel treatment modalities. Successful treatment or prevention of liver disease in children will have long-term implications. This report describes the current burden of pediatric liver disease and offers approaches to intervention. (C) 2002 Blackwell Publishing Asia Pty Ltd.
