Modification of the alpha 1-antitrypsin phenotype in neonatal hepatitis.
Abstract
Two cases of neonatal hepatitis are described, one related to cytomegalovirus infection and the other idiopathic. In both infants a transient abnormality of the alpha 1-antitrypsin phenotype, inconsistent with the parent's phenotypes, reverted to normal during the convalescent phase of the illness.
