Diagnostic dilemma of cystic biliary atresia: A series of two cases and brief review of the diagnostic modalities

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Cystic biliary atresia (CBA) is a rare variant of biliary atresia that closely resembles choledochal cyst (CC), complicating diagnosis and potentially delaying critical surgical intervention. We report two cases of CBA that were difficult to diagnose.

Application of complement component 4d immunohistochemistry to ABO-compatible and ABO-incompatible liver transplantation. [PDF]

, 2014
Antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) is difficult to diagnose after ABO-compatible or ABO-identical (ABO-C) liver transplantation. To determine whether complement component 4d (C4d) immunostaining would be useful for diagnosing AMR, we compared the results ...

Diagnostic Impact of Liver Biopsy Among Antinuclear Antibody Positive Individuals With Mild Liver Enzyme Elevation

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
In ANA‐positive patients with suspected autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), liver biopsy rarely altered therapeutic management when alanine aminotransferase (ALT) was below 101 U/L and cirrhosis was absent. These findings suggest that biopsy may be safely deferred in this low‐risk group.

Cholangiocytes derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells for disease modeling and drug validation. [PDF]

, 2015
The study of biliary disease has been constrained by a lack of primary human cholangiocytes. Here we present an efficient, serum-free protocol for directed differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells into cholangiocyte-like cells (CLCs). CLCs

Biliary fibrosis is an important but neglected pathological feature in hepatobiliary disorders: from molecular mechanisms to clinical implications

Medical Review
Fibrosis resulting from pathological repair secondary to recurrent or persistent tissue damage often leads to organ failure and mortality. Biliary fibrosis is a crucial but easily neglected pathological feature in hepatobiliary disorders, which may ...

Annual magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography surveillance outcomes in individuals with primary sclerosing cholangitis

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Annual surveillance for cholangiocarcinoma using magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) has been recommended in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) to improve the associated dismal outcomes. However, data are limited. Aims To compare the outcomes of surveillance versus non‐surveillance in patients with PSC.
