Hi everyone, my daughter was diagnosed with BA at 3months and the Dr said was not comfortable to do kasai as success rate is low above 3months and solution is transplant. Now she's 9months on the waiting list for transplant. Thank you everyone for the information you post from your experiences made me to calm down. This condition is rare in our country I never knew of it before my daughter was diagnosed with it.
