摘要

Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) in children presents significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges requiring a multidisciplinary and evidence-based approach. The Indian Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition (ISPGHAN) convened a consensus meeting on February 23, 2025, bringing together national and international experts to address key clinical and research questions. The deliberations spanned epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis including autoantibodies, immunoglobulin G (IgG), histology and diagnostic scores, therapeutic strategies, management of difficult-to-treat AIH, long-term monitoring, and special scenarios, such as seronegative AIH (SN-AIH), autoimmune sclerosing cholangitis/overlap syndromes and post-transplant complications like recurrence and de novo-AIH. Recommendations were formulated using standard GRADE system and finalized through structured consensus. These guidelines aim to standardize care, assist clinicians in decision-making, and improve outcomes in children with AIH across diverse healthcare settings.
