Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Dubin Johnson syndrome causes predominantly conjugated hyperbilirubinaemia due to an inherited defect in canalicular excretion of conjugated bilirubin into bile. Gilbert's syndrome and Crigler-Najjar syndromes (Types 1 and 2) result from reduced hepatic UDP-glucuronosyltransferase activity and therefore cause unconjugated hyperbilirubinaemia.
