The link is in the top right corner of the video and in the episode description. Hello and welcome, I’m Fernando, a GP in the UK. Today we are going to cover what to do when we encounter abnormal LFTs with a cholestatic pattern, always focusing on what is relevant in Primary Care only. This episode is based on the British Society of Gastroenterology guidelines on abnormal Liver function tests. A link to it is in the episode description. Right, let’s jump into it.And let’s start by remembering that there are three common patterns of abnormal liver function tests or LFTs:A cholestatic pattern, normally showing a high ALP and GGT, which is what we will concentrate on today. An isolated raised bilirubin with otherwise normal liver tests.And a hepatitic pattern, with a raised ALT and AST indicating hepatocellular injury. By the way, if you are interested in finding out more about the last two types, make sure to watch the corresponding episodes on this channel. The links are in the episode description.As we have said, LFTs showing a cholestatic pattern normally present with a high ALP and GGT.Alkaline phosphatase, or ALP, is produced mainly in the liver but is also found in bone, intestines, kidneys and the placenta. Levels are physiologically higher in childhood because of rapid bone growth, and in pregnancy due to placental production. Raised ALP can come from either hepatic or non-hepatic sources.The main source of non-hepatic ALP is bone. ALP increases in bone disease because it is produced by osteoblasts, the cells responsible for forming new bone. Any condition that increases osteoblast activity or bone turnover—such as healing fractures, Paget’s disease, bone metastases, or vitamin D ...
