Summary

This study is gathering information and samples from over 1,200 children with biliary atresia, a rare liver disease. Researchers hope to find the genes that cause the disease and learn how it progresses over time in children who still have their own liver. No new treatments are being tested; the goal is simply to better understand the condition.
