Clinics in Liver Disease, 2004Primary sclerosing cholangitis is a cholestatic liver disease strongly associated with IBD. Considerable advances in the understanding of its pathogenesis have been made.

Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
Surgical Clinics of North America, 1981In spite of an improved understanding of the etiology of primary sclerosing cholangitis, which supports the use of immunosuppressive therapy with steroids and azathioprine, these pharmacologic manipulations have not altered the ultimate outcome of the disease. Drainage remains the most accepted mode of therapy when possible.
