Primary sclerosing cholangitis
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic, cholestatic liver disease caused by diffuse inflammation and fibrosis that can involve the entire biliary tree. The progressive pathological process obliterates intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts, leading ultimately to biliary cirrhosis, portal hypertension and hepatic failure.

Primary sclerosing cholangitis
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic bile duct disease leading to fibrotic biliary strictures and liver cirrhosis. The patient population is heterogeneous with regard to disease progression and the presence of co-morbidities, complicating the practical handling of patients as well as studies of pathogenetic mechanisms. The aetiology of PSC
