Biliary tract malformations

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, 2003
AbstractThe biliary tree extends from the canals of Hering at the margin of the most peripheral portal tracts to the ampulla of Vater. Malformations occur at every level of this structure. Phenotypic features dominate present understanding of these malformations and of the disorders with which they are associated. Classifications of disease will likely

Biliary tract cancer

Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2000
Investigation into the molecular and cellular biology of carcinogenesis continues to elucidate potential mechanisms for the initiation and progression of biliary tract cancer. The potential role of cell cycle regulators, such as Fas ligand, has been examined in the etiology of bile duct carcinoma.
