Case Report: Autoimmune hepatitis in a patient with pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1—insights into a rare co-occurrence
We report a unique clinical presentation involving a patient who was diagnosed at the age of 1 month with PHA type 1 caused by a mutation of <i>SCNN1A</i> and who was diagnosed with autoimmune hepatitis. The coexistence of these two conditions could highlight a potential shared pathological pathway. Further research into the genetic and immunological links between these rare disorders is warranted.
