Tropical diseases of the liver and bile ducts

Seminars in Roentgenology, 1975
INCE S THE DAWN of recorded time man has had to adapt to an ever-changing and often hostile environment. Not the least of these adaptations has been his struggle through the ages with the innumerable parasites handed down by his animal predecessors. That he has survived and even prospered in the face of such adversities is a tribute to his tenacity and

Rejection of murine congenic bile ducts: A model for immune-mediated bile duct disease

Gastroenterology, 1992
Immune-mediated injury of prenatal and postnatal extrahepatic bile duct epithelium has been poorly characterized. In a transplantation model of bile duct allografts, segments of the common bile duct from fetal day 18, postnatal day 7 and day 21, and adult (greater than 6-weeks) mice were grafted under the renal capsule of adult congenic mice.

Bioengineered bile ducts recapitulate key cholangiocyte functions

Biofabrication, 2018
Investigation of diseases of the bile duct system and identification of potential therapeutic targets are hampered by the lack of tractable in vitro systems to model cholangiocyte biology.

Bile Cast Nephropathy Caused by Obstructive Cholestasis.

American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 2017
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a major complication in patients with liver disease. Although hepatorenal syndrome is frequently involved, bile cast nephropathy, characterized by tubular bile cast formation, has been scarcely described in the setting of ...

Imaging Diseases of the Gallbladder and Bile Ducts [PDF]

, 2010
Patients with gallbladder and biliary disease may present with complaints of right upper quadrant or mid-epigastric pain, fever, jaundice, pruritis, nausea, vomiting, or they may be asymptomatic, with only laboratory abnormalities. Ultrasound, multidetector computed tomography (MDCT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are used for the non-invasive ...

Epidemiology and natural history of common bile duct stones and prediction of disease.

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 2002
Gallstones are extremely common in Western societies. Approximately l5% of Americans have gallstones, and approximately 650,000 to 700,000 cholecystectomies are performed every year.1.
