Intrahepatic Cholangitis Associated with Mucocutaneous Lymph Node Syndrome
Although gallbladder hydrops occurs frequently in patients with mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome (MCLS), the etiology of the gallbladder lesion is unclear. Recently we performed a liver biopsy on a child with severe MCLS and demonstrated selective invasion of biliary ductular epithelial cells by polymorphonuclear leukocytes with sparing of the ...
