Yellow urticaria revealing overlap syndrome of autoimmune hepatitis and primary biliary cholangitis
Abstract Yellow urticaria is a variant of urticaria that is rarely reported in the literature. It usually occurs in the setting of a chronic liver disease and reflects the accumulation of bilirubin in the skin tissues.

| Summary: | Abstract Yellow urticaria is a variant of urticaria that is rarely reported in the literature. It usually occurs in the setting of a chronic liver disease and reflects the accumulation of bilirubin in the skin tissues. We report a case of yellow urticaria that occurred in a 33‐year‐old female patient suffering from systemic lupus erythematosus and overlap syndrome of autoimmune hepatitis and primary biliary cholangitis revealed by a migratory pruritic yellowish urticarial eruption on the trunk and limbs. Yellow urticaria may be an important clue to previously unknown liver or biliary disease as it generally occurs in the setting of hyperbilirubinemia. |
