ABCB4 variant is associated with hepatobiliary MR abnormalities in people with low-phospholipid-associated cholelithiasis syndrome
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
•We analysed the relationship between MRI and the genetic status of ABCB4 in LPAC.•MR abnormalities were found in 61 (49%) of the 125 individuals with LPAC syndrome.•Forty (67%) of the 60 individuals with an ABCB4 gene variant had MR abnormalities.•Twenty-one (33%) of the 65 individuals without an ABCB4 gene variant had MR abnormalities.•ABCB4-related LPAC is associated with more frequent and severe MR abnormalities. Background & AimsThe low-phospholipid-associated cholelithiasis (LPAC) syndrome is a recently described peculiar form of cholelithiasis associated with the ATP-binding-cassette subfamily B, member 4 (ABCB4) gene deficiency. The purpose of our study was to analyse the relationship between magnetic resonance (MR) features and the genetic status of ABCB4 in people with LPAC syndrome.MethodsA total of 233 individuals with proven LPAC syndrome were enrolled between January 2003 and June 2018 in a retrospective single-centre study. Inclusion criteria included availability of clinical files, MR images, and genetic data. MR images were analysed by consensus among 3 senior radiologists blinded to the status of ABCB4 gene mutation.ResultsA total of 125 individuals (mean age at first MR imaging 40.8 years; 66% females; 48% ABCB4 variant) were included. MR abnormalities were found in 61 (49%) of the 125 individuals. Forty (67%) of the 60 individuals with an ABCB4 gene variant had MR abnormalities as compared with 21 (33%) of the 65 individuals without an ABCB4 gene variant (odds ratio [OR] 4.1, 95% CI 1.9–9.5, p = 0.0001). Compared to individuals with no variant, individuals with an ABCB4 variant were more likely to show intrahepatic macrolithiasis (56 vs. 17%; OR 6.3, 95% CI 2.6–16.2, p <0.0001), bile duct dilatation (60 vs. 18%; OR 6.5, 95% CI 2.7–16.3, p <0.0001), and at least 1 MR feature of complication (35 vs. 15%; OR 2.9, 95% CI 1.1–7.8, p <0.05).ConclusionsABCB4-related LPAC syndrome is associated with more frequent and severe hepatobiliary MR abnormalities. This finding strongly supports the major role of the ABCB4 gene in the pathogenesis of LPAC syndrome and highlights a genotype–phenotype association in this inherited disease with genetic heterogeneity.Lay summaryABCB4-related LPAC syndrome associated with an ABCB4 gene variant demonstrates more frequent and severe hepatobiliary MR abnormalities.
