Overview
Historical Perspective
Discovery
- In 1950, Waldenstrom was the first to describe a form of chronic hepatitis in young women.[1]

- In 1992, an international panel described the diagnostic criteria for Autoimmune hepatitis.
- The term Autoimmune hepatitis was used to replace terms such as Autoimmune liver disease and Autoimmune chronic active hepatitis by an international panel.
- The association between [important risk factor/cause] and [disease name] was made in/during [year/event].
- C4 gene mutations were first implicated in the pathogenesis of Autoimmune hepatitis.[2]
