This case report describes the previously undocumented association between fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma and ulcerative colitis complicated by primary sclerosing cholangitis.

Background: Although bacterial cholangitis is frequently mentioned as a cause of secondary sclerosing cholangitis, it appears to be extremely rare, with only one documented case ever reported. Case presentation: A 48-year-old woman presented with an episode of acute biliary pancreatitis that was complicated by pancreatic abcess formation. After 3 months she had an episode of severe pyogenic (E....

BACKGROUND Patients with biliary obstruction are at high risk to develop septic complications after endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC). We evaluated the benefits of local application of antimicrobial agents into ERC contrast media in preventing post-ERC infectious complications in a high-risk study population. METHODS Patients undergoing ERC at our tertiary referral center were retro...

IgG4-related autoimmune disease is a recently recognized clinical entity associated with autoimmune pancreatitis, various systemic extrapancreatic lesions and an elevated serum IgG4 level. IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis (IgG4-SC) is one of the extrapancreatic manifestations of this entity, which needs to be differentiated from primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) as these two diseases appe...

BACKGROUND Hepatobiliary tuberculosis includes miliary, tuberculous hepatitis or localized forms. The localised form is extremely uncommon and can mimic malignancy. Still rarer is its presentation as sclerosing cholangitis. CASE PRESENTATION A 50 year male presented with acute onset jaundice, significant weight loss and elevated liver enzymes with clinico-radiological suspicion of cholangioca...

background: one of the most serious late complications, after evacuation of liver hydatid cyst and instillation of scolicidal agents is sclerosing cholangitis, most probably caused by the type of scolicidal agents instilled.   objective:   to determine the incidence of sclerosing cholangitis after intra-biliary tract infusion of 5% saline and 0.5% silver nitrate.   methods: 5% hypertonic saline...

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...
