Overview

Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of primary biliary cirrhosis include elevated levels of bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, anti-mitochondrial antibodies, lipids, immunoglobulin M, liver aminotransferases.

Laboratory Findings

  • Some patients with primary biliary cirrhosis may have "nuclear-rim" and "multiple nuclear-dot" patterns, which is highly specific for primary biliary cirrhosis, particularly in AMA-negative patients.
  • Some patients with primary biliary cirrhosis may have elevated antinuclear antibody (35% patients) and anti-smooth muscle antibody (66% patients).
