Viruses cause many types of hepatitis. Autoimmune hepatitis (aih) is one exception. This type of liver disease occurs when your immune system attacks your liver cells. Aih is a chronic condition that can result in cirrhosis (scarring) of the liver. Ultimately, it can lead to liver failure. Aih can be easily confused with other illnesses. Symptoms are very similar to those of viral hepatitis. Blood tests are used to measure the levels of specific antibodies in your blood. A liver biopsy may sometimes be necessary to diagnose aih. It can reveal the type and severity of your liver damage and inflammation. The procedure involves removing a small piece of your liver tissue with a long needle and sending it to a laboratory for testing.
