Zusammenfassung

Diese Leitlinie wurde unter Federführung der DGVS und mit Beteiligung benachbarter Fachgebiete erstellt und soll als praktische Hilfe für die Diagnostik und Therapie der Autoimmunen Lebererkrankungen dienen. Sie soll den aktuellen Stand der Wissenschaft darstellen, das Erkennen der Erkrankung fördern und die Behandlung der Patienten verbessern.

Abstract

The guideline was created under the leadership of the DGVS and with participation of neighbouring scientific societies and is intended as a practical aid for the diagnosis and therapy of autoimmune liver diseases. The aim is to represent the current state of science, promote the recognition of the disease and improve the treatment of patients
