Since 1855, 11 instances of familial extrahepatic biliary atresia (EHBA) have been described. Genetic, environmental, vascular, and infectious causes for this disorder have been proposed. We report on 2 families each with 2 sibs with EHBA. We suggest that a genetic susceptibility to an environmental insult to the biliary tree may be responsible for the genesis of this disease.
