IgG4-negative autoimmune pancreatitis with sclerosing cholangitis and colitis: possible association with primary sclerosing cholangitis?
We report a case of autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) with cholangiography and histopathology showing features characteristic of primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and colitis. A 55-year-old previously-healthy man was diagnosed with anti-nuclear antibody (ANA)-positive AIP according to the finding of serum biochemistry, abdominal US (ultrasonography), CT (computed tomography) and ERCP (endoscopic...
متن کاملIgG4 negative sclerosing cholangitis associated with autoimmune pancreatitis.
BACKGROUND Sclerosing pancreatitis is an autoimmune condition characterized by periductal lymphocytic infiltration on histology, and elevated serum auto-antibodies and IgG4. Bile duct involvement is often associated with sclerosing pancreatitis but it is rarely the dominant feature. CASE REPORT We report a patient with dominant biliary stricture and obstructive jaundice associated with IgG4 n...
متن کاملIgG4-Seronegative Autoimmune Pancreatitis and Sclerosing Cholangitis
IgG4-related disease is a relatively novel clinical entity whose gastrointestinal manifestations include type 1 autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) and IgG4-associated sclerosing cholangitis. The presence of elevated serum IgG4 is suggestive but not essential for the diagnosis of type 1 AIP and is a pervasive feature of the proposed diagnostic criteria. The differential diagnosis of type 1 AIP includ...
متن کاملAutoimmune hepatitis overlapping with primary sclerosing cholangitis.
A case of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) complicated by primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) in a 36-year-old woman is reported. AIH overlapping with PSC has been rarely reported, and to the best of our knowledge, there have been no reports in Japan. Based on the criteria for diagnosis of AIH and on typical endoscopic retrograde cholangiograph (ERC) findings, the patient was diagnosed as having AIH...
متن کاملPrimary sclerosing cholangitis
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the biliary system that results in progressive fibrosis and strictures of the intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts. Typical radiological changes on retrograde cholangiography are shown in Figure 1. These strictures cause cholestatic liver disease that may progress to end-stage cirrhosis. The disorder has a strong ass...
