AbstractChronic elevation of transaminases is recurring issue in primary care. This article aims to be practical. It offers a quick reminder of epidemiology, pathophysiology, concept of normal values of transaminases, main causes (alcohol, fatty liver disease, viral hepatitis) and first-line assessment. Then, we will go further in less frequent causes, extra-hepatic causes and additional tests. We will precise what is the role of general practitioner in this care pathway and when to address patient to specialist.Copyright © 2023 Société Nationale Française de Médecine Interne (SNFMI).
