A . History and physical examination
. jaundice and icterus refer to the yellow appearance to the skin, sclera, and mucous
membranes as a result of retention and systemic deposition of bilirubin.
aundice typically does not develop until the serum bilirubin level exceeds 2 . 5
o 3 . jaundice or icterus i s a reflection of liver disease, including obstruction of
he biliary tract, acute hepatic injury from drugs and toxins , and the chronic
oss of hepatic reserve from cirrhosis due to alcohol, the hepatitis virus(es) ,
ron or copper, and parasitic infection.
2 . The triad of splenomegaly, ascites , and caput medusae (dilated abdominal wall
veins) indicates portal hypertension. O ther signs/symptoms of cirrhosis and/or
portal hypertension can include a history of upper GI bleeding from esophageal
varices or hepatic encephalopathy from excessive NH3 levels , testicular
atrophy, spider angiomata, pain, and fatigue .
3 . A history of pruritus suggests cholestasis , either intrahepatic or extrahepatic.
Causes may be at the hepatocellular level (viral hepatitis) , canalicular level
drugs , total parenteral nutrition, amyloidosis) , or biliary ductal level (primary
biliary cirrhosis [ PBC ] , primary sclerosing cholangitis [ P SC ] ) .
B . Diagnostic laboratory testing
. Serum bilirubin levels , both conj ugated (direct) and unconjugated (indirect) ,
are affected in a number of disease processes and are related to the metabolism
of the bilirubin.
a. Unconjugated bilirubin is generally elevated in hemolysis , drug hepatotoxicity,
nherited enzymatic disorders (Gilbert disease, Crigler-Najj ar) , and
he physiologic disorders of the newborn.
b . Conj ugated bilirubin is usually elevated in hepatocellular diseases, cholestasis
or biliary obstruction.
2 . The serum transaminases alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase
AST) are nonspecific indicators of acute hepatocellular inj ury.
However, an AST:ALT ratio greater than 2 : 1 is more suggestive of alcoholic
iver disease .
3 . Alkaline phosphatase c a n be u s e d a s a marker of cholestasis . Alkaline phosphatase
s released by damaged hepatocytes as a consequence of cholestasis ,
but other organ and tissue production of alkaline phosphatase (e.g. , bone, placenta,
kidneys , and leukocytes) make it a nonspecific indicator in the evaluation
of liver disease. The heat-stable fraction of alkaline phosphatase is more
uggestive of liver pathology.
4. The synthetic function of the liver is measured by the serum albumin level and the
prothrombin time (PT) , the latter of which is reflective of the vitamin K-dependent
lotting factors II, VII, IX, and X. The most sensitive indicator of deficiency of hepatic
ynthetic function is an abnormal (prolonged) PT. No improvement in the PT
despite vitamin K administration reflects severe hepatic functional loss.
