Suggest treatment for elevated liver enzymes in a child
Patient: I am writing this for my 19 months old grant daughter who undergone a surgary for Bilary Atresia on 21st Jan 2010. She was undrer medication UDCA 25mg syrup besides vitamin suppliments. In Nov 2010 doctors discontinued all the medicines because the blood test report was good. Bilurubin level was very normal. Now her SGOTlevel is 146, SGPT 217 and Alkaline 464 which are three times more than what was on 17th Feb 2011. Bilirubin and other blood results are normal. Kindly advise what we have to do. Thanks. M.O.Cheriyan Doctor: HI...nothing to worry about this if the bilirubin and other parameters are normal. More important the blood tests is the kids general appearance, growth and development. If this is normal, nothing to worry about this.Regards - Dr. Sumanth
