Core Tip
Core Tip: Shwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS) frequently results in abnormal liver function and hepatomegaly during infancy and early childhood. However, adult liver pathologies caused by SDS are rare. We present a unique case of a 36-year-old patient diagnosed with SDS through whole-exome sequencing, highlighting the possibility of SDS in cases of unexplained cirrhosis and pancreatic fat infiltration.
