Congenital hepatic fibrosis (CHF) is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by periportal fibrosis, portal hypertension, and renal cystic disease. Essentially, CHF is a variant of fibrocystic disorder in which liver and kidney are commonly affected. Other frequently associated conditions include Caroli syndrome and polycystic kidney disease. CHF is also a known accompaniment in an array of inherited disorders with multiorgan involvement.The 20-year-old male patient with declining vision (14 years duration), intermittent gingival bleeding (7 years duration), and abdominal distension (5 years duration), presented with exacerbation of these symptoms during the prior 2 months. The patient had been previously diagnosed with retinal macular degeneration, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, and hepatosplenomegaly.Liver biopsy showed disordered hepatic acini and fibrous parenchymal banding, indicative of CHF.After the treatment of diuresis and liver protectants, the clinical symptoms of the patients were improved. We subsequently recommend chromosomal analysis, although the family refused.Three months after discharge, the patient was followed up by telephone. The patient had obvious abdominal distension and we advised that he should be admitted again. But the family refused.CHF is an AR disease resulting in portal hypertension and often associated with renal malformations. CHF is also linked to a number of other disorders, many of which are ciliopathies. Because the clinical manifestations of CHF are nonspecific or lacking, its diagnosis is problematic, relying largely on liver biopsy. Once CHF is identified, physicians are obligated to investigate other organ systems, particularly a search for neuromuscular, retina or renal involvement. This case underscores the value of radiologic imaging, pathologic examination, and genetic testing in successfully diagnosing a rare disease.
