Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1982
Recent investigations have clarified the clinical, radiologic, and pathologic features of primary sclerosing cholangitis, a chronic fibrosing disorder affecting the biliary tree. This progressive, cholestatic biliary disease is diagnosed when an elevated serum alkaline phosphatase level and stricturing and beading of bile ducts on cholangiography are ...

Two new cases of primary sclerosing cholangitis with a rapid fatal course, particularly the patient in Case 2, are presented. Primary sclerosing cholangitis is a rare condition of unknown cause presenting with extrahepatic biliary obstruction due to a chronic inflammatory obliterative process with the absence of stones, cancer, or previous biliary ...

Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, 2005
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease characterized by inflammation and fibrosis of the intra- and extrahepatic bile ducts. An estimated 80% of patients in North America and Europe have coexistent inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The underlying pathophysiology of PSC remains poorly understood.

Primary sclerosing cholangitis

Gastroenterology Nursing, 2007
Primary sclerosing cholangitis is a chronic cholestatic liver disease of unknown origin characterized by progressive inflammation, destruction, and fibrosis of the intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts. The disease leads to obliteration of intrahepatic bile ducts and to biliary cirrhosis, end-stage liver disease, and portal hypertension.

Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1981
In 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.

Primary Biliary Cholangitis and Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

American Journal of Gastroenterology, 2019
Cholestatic liver diseases encompass a broad spectrum of pathologies, with the core injury occurring at the level of cholangiocytes and progressing to hepatic fibrosis and liver dysfunction. Primary biliary cholangitis and primary sclerosing cholangitis are the most significant progressive cholangiopathies in adults. Although rare, they commonly evolve

Secondary Sclerosing Cholangitis: A Comparison to Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

The American Journal of Gastroenterology, 2005
The natural history of secondary sclerosing cholangitis (SSC) is ill-defined. In order to better determine the natural history of this condition, we retrospectively reviewed data from the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. We also compared the natural history of patients diagnosed with SSC to a cohort with a diagnosis of primary sclerosing ...
