Preferred Label : Cholestasis, benign recurrent intrahepatic, 1;

Symbol : BRIC1;

CISMeF acronym : BRIC1;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Summerskill syndrome;

Description : Benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis is characterized by intermittent episodes of cholestasis without extrahepatic bile duct obstruction. There is initial elevation of serum bile acids, followed by cholestatic jaundice which generally spontaneously resolves after periods of weeks to months (Summerskill and Walshe, 1959; Schapiro and Isselbacher, 1963; Brenard et al., 1989). Tygstrup et al. (1999) stated that referring to this disorder as 'benign' is a misnomer, because the disease has an impact on the quality of life in some patients. They preferred the term 'recurrent familial intrahepatic cholestasis.' - Genetic Heterogeneity of Benign Recurrent Intrahepatic Cholestasis See also BRIC2 (605479), caused by mutation in the ABCB11 gene (603201) on chromosome 2q24.;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the ATPase, class I, type 8B, member 1 gene (ATP8B1, 602397.0006);

Laboratory abnormalities : Normal or mildly increased serum gamma-GGT (231950); Conjugated hyperbilirubinemia; Increased serum bile acids;

Prefixed ID : #243300;
