Hi, my dear husband has been diagnosed with DUCTOPENIA, a rare chronic cholestatic liver disease. He is still in shocked and devastated about this news.

Because its a rare disease, we are struggling to find more information about this. Is there anyone here who can help us understand and learn more about DUCTOPENIA? (links would be helpful). Thanks.

I thought that ductopenia was the result of a disease, not the disease itself. Have his doctors found the underlying cause? Sorry you are both going through this.
