Abstract

The presence of elevated aminotransferases on routine blood tests can reveal liver diseases of various severities. In children, etiologies are more numerous and complex than those usually considered in adults. Information derived from family and personal history, physical examination and basic laboratory data are necessary to reach a timely and correct diagnosis. A stepwise approach is proposed to guide the timing of more specific investigations that are often required.
