Isolated Liver Hilar Infiltration by IgG4 Inflammation Mimicking Cholangiocarcinoma
IgG4-related disease represents a heterogeneous group of disease characterized by infiltration of various tissues by IgG4 plasmocytes. In case of liver infiltration, this condition classically mimics primary sclerosing cholangitis or multifocal cholangiocarcinoma due to inflammation that preferentially affects the intra- and extrahepatic bile duct. Diagnostic criteria have recently been reviewe...
متن کاملIgG4-Associated Cholangitis Can Mimic Hilar Cholangiocarcinoma
IgG4-associated cholangitis can mimic hilar cholangiocarcinoma. Previously reported patients with IgG4-associated cholangitis mimicking cholangiocarcinoma had elevated serum IgG4 levels and long-segment biliary strictures. However, in the absence of other diagnostic criteria for malignancy, IgG4-associated cholangitis should remain a consideration among patients with normal serum IgG4 and a hil...
متن کاملInflammatory myofibroblastic tumour of liver masquerading as hilar cholangiocarcinoma
There is a wide variety of inflammatory and benign neoplastic disorders of the biliary system that mimic cholangiocarcinoma in terms of clinical manifestations and imaging findings. Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour of the bilary tract is one such condition, which is extremely rare but benign. Like cholangiocarcinoma this condition presents as painless progressive obstructive jaundice and it ...
متن کاملExtensive Metastatic Cholangiocarcinoma Associated With IgG4-Related Sclerosing Cholangitis Misdiagnosed as Isolated IgG4-Related Sclerosing Cholangitis
As cholangiographic features of IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis (IgG4-SC) resemble those of cholangiocarcinoma, it is highly confusing between the 2 conditions on the basis of cholangiographic findings. This study presents a case of extensive metastatic cholangiocarcinoma with IgG4-SC misdiagnosed as isolated IgG4-SC, and reviews recent studies of the 2 diseases.A 56-year-old man with no fa...
متن کاملIcteric Intraductal Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Bile Duct Thrombus Masquerading as Hilar Cholangiocarcinoma.
Dear Editor, Obstructive jaundice is a rare presenting clinical feature in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Icteric HCC is otherwise known as icteric-type hepatoma.1 It is known that intraluminal biliary obstruction may occur by one of 3 mechanisms: haemobilia caused by bleeding from the tumour, migration of tumour debris that has separated from the primary growth, or continuous re...
