Partial hepatectomy in the treatment of Caroli's disease. Report of a case and review of the literature.

abstract：:As chronic liver disease progresses, an imbalance occurs between synthesis and breakdown of extracellular matrix (ECM). Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are involved in degrading ECM while tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) prevent their fibrolytic action. We determined if plasma levels of MMP-2, TIMP-1 a...
