Congenital Hepatic Fibrosis in a 2-Year-Old Child Presenting with Fever of Unknown Origin.

Congenital hepatic fibrosis is a rare, autosomal recessive, fibro-polycystic disease resulting from ductal plate malformation, leading to proliferation and fibrosis of bile ducts. Progressive hepatic fibrosis leads to portal hypertension and varices which can present with life threatening gastrointestinal hemorrhage. We report a case of congenital hepatic fibrosis in a 2-year-old child who presented with 8 days of fever without any significant medical history or physical examination findings.
