What is biliary atresia? Biliary atresia is a rare condition in newborn infants in which the common bile duct between the liver and the small intestine is blocked or absent. If unrecognized, the condition leads to liver failure. The cause of the condition is unknown. The only effective treatments are certain surgeries such as the kasai procedure, or liver transplantation.

healthy kid

One year after Wacky returned home to the Philippines following the liver transplant operation, he has grown to be a healthy and normal kid. He's now 2 1/2 years old, and plays a lot with his brother and cousins - learning new words, and exploring his surroundings.
