Acibadem Kadikoy Hospital offers dedicated Kasai Procedure with experienced pediatric surgeons, hepatologists, advanced diagnostic support, and specialized postoperative care. Established in 1991, the JCI accredited hospital is situated in Istanbul, Turkey and has 138 beds supporting pediatric liver and biliary care.
Kasai Procedure may be recommended for infants diagnosed with biliary atresia, where progressive blockage of the bile ducts can cause bile accumulation and liver damage. During surgery, the affected bile duct tissue is removed and the intestine is connected to the liver surface to provide an alternative route for bile drainage. Early treatment is important because prolonged bile obstruction can lead to progressive liver injury. Follow-up care includes monitoring bilirubin levels, liver function, growth, nutrition, and signs of complications such as cholangitis.

A Kasai procedure is also known as a hepatoportoenterostomy. It is a surgical intervention primarily used to treat a condition called biliary atresia in infants. Biliary atresia is a rare condition where the bile ducts that carry bile from the liver to the small intestine are either absent or blocked. This procedure is performed to bypass the drainage pathway for bile from the liver directly into the intestine. The procedure helps prevent the buildup of bile in the liver and reduces the risk of liver damage and cirrhosis.
The primary medical condition treated through a Kasai procedure is biliary atresia in infants. It is performed in cases where the condition is detected early, typically within the first few months of life.
Infants are closely monitored in the hospital following the procedure for complications, infection, and bile flow effectiveness. If the procedure is successful, the infant's jaundice may improve over time. Regular check-ups are required to monitor the liver's function and overall health. The Kasai procedure does not provide a cure for biliary atresia, but it can improve the quality of life and potentially delay the need for a transplant.
