There is a tendency for the surgical procedure to be delayed throughout Brazil and an investigation of its cause is necessary. Objective: to determine the epidemiological profile of the patient with BA and to evaluate the health care focused on it at a tertiary hospital. Methods: a descriptive, retrospective, cross-sectional study was performed using medical records of patients with a diagnosis of BA followed up at a tertiary hospital between 1996 and 2015. Results: the initial sample had 72 patients, and only 52 patients had complete records available at the hospital. Twenty-six patients were included with mean age at admission of 87,9 days (± 57,9), the ultrasound (US) was performed in 24 cases, and it was repeated in ten cases. The Kasai surgery was performed in 50% of the patients, 38.4% of which during the appropriate time. Of the patients who were operated on later, 25% were transplanted and 50% died, while in the four operated on time, only one was transplanted and there were no deaths. Conclusion: the diagnostic difficulties, in particular, failure to suspect BA in primary or tertiary care, in addition to a falsenegative USG results, delayed the surgical procedure, confirming the worst outcome when the surgery was delayed.
