How Should Cancer Surveillance in Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis Be Performed?
BACKGROUND Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the intra- and extrahepatic bile duct system that can ultimately cause liver cirrhosis. Apart from the risk of progression to end-stage liver disease the prognosis of PSC is primarily determined by the risk to develop hepatobiliary or extrahepatic malignancies. A reasonable surveillance strategy for PSC ...
متن کاملMetachronous Carcinomas of the Biliary Tract in a Patient Treated Three Times with Curative Surgery
We here report on a case of metachronous multicentric carcinomas of the biliary tract treated 3 times with curative surgery over 23 years. A 28-year-old woman underwent cholecystectomy because of papillary carcinoma of the gallbladder. After 17 years, 3 carcinomas developed in the biliary tract: intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma of the left liver, common bile duct carcinoma, and remnant cystic du...
متن کاملTrends in Hepatic Cancer Survival in Switzerland
Malignant liver cancers represent primarily hepatocellular carcinomas (90%) followed by cholangiocarcinomas (10%). Other forms of malignant liver cancer, such as angiosarcoma, are extremely rare. Hepatocellular carcinomas and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas deserve our attention for several reasons. Firstly, their incidence is rising, and in some countries distinctly, as has been documented by...
متن کاملA Gentleman with Anemia and Cholestasis
Primary sclerosing cholangitis is a rare cause of cholestasis caused by progressive inflammation and fibrosis of both intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts leading to multifocal ductal strictures. Herein, we report a case of primary sclerosing cholangitis and inflammatory bowel disease. The concomitant diagnosis of these two diseases is not typical. The management includes the treatment of i...
متن کاملPathology of liver tumours
The liver is an important site for primary and secondary tumours. in western countries, the commonest malignant neoplasm of the liver is metastatic carcinoma, but hepatocellular carcinoma is a common and important cause of death elsewhere. There is a strong association with infection by hepatitis-B and -c; the latter explains the growing incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma in western countrie...
