Abstract
Biliary atresia (BA) is a fibro-obliterative cholestatic disease of infancy. The presence of cartilage in the resected tissue is an uncommon finding. We documented the presence of both mature and immature hyaline cartilage in the portal plate and the wall of the gallbladder in a 2-month-old girl infant with BA who had undergone Kasai portoenterostomy. The presence of cartilage could be part of a heterotopia or an uncommon connective tissue metaplasia. The presence of immature cartilage with the merging of the perichondrium with the soft tissue highlights a metaplastic etiology in the index case.
胆道闭锁（BA）是一种婴儿期纤维盲性胆汁淤积症。在切除的组织中发现软骨并不常见。我们记录了一名 2 个月大的 BA 女婴的门板和胆囊壁上同时存在成熟和不成熟的透明软骨，她曾接受过葛西氏肠门造口术。软骨的存在可能是异位瘤或不常见的结缔组织增生的一部分。在该病例中，未成熟软骨的存在以及软骨周围与软组织的合并凸显了变构病的病因。
