Steatorrhea Versus Normal Stool in Neonatal and Early Infantile Period: Implications for Biliary Atresia

Physicochemical property of undigested milk fat is theoretically analyzed. With uniqueness of neonatal/early infantile period and fat amount, the highest estimated stiffness of stool is gel or paste level. Therefore, typical stool of breastfed, small amount either watery or “seedy” is incompatible w...

description Physicochemical property of undigested milk fat is theoretically analyzed. With uniqueness of neonatal/early infantile period and fat amount, the highest estimated stiffness of stool is gel or paste level. Therefore, typical stool of breastfed, small amount either watery or “seedy” is incompatible with steatorrhea, which may be useful to diagnose biliary atresia patients.
