Stool colour in children: What's normal, what's not?

Some babies are born with blocked or incompletely developed biliary tree, which hampers the drainage of bile into the intestines. This is an essentially life-threatening condition, if not treated on time as the impaired drainage causes high grade jaundice and liver failure. This pathology is called biliary atresia. It needs surgical reconstruction of the duct system in which a segment of intestine is directly attached to liver for adequate drainage of bile.
