Elevated hepatic enzymes in atypical cystic fibrosis – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/1005804219

This refers to elevated hepatic enzymes, in an atypical autosomal recessive genetic disorder that affects most critically the lungs, and also the pancreas, liver, and intestine. It is characterised by abnormal transport of chloride and sodium across an epithelium, leading to thick, viscous secretions.
