| A number of [[risk factor]]s for the development of cholangiocarcinoma have been described; in the Western world, the most common of these is [[primary sclerosing cholangitis]] (PSC), an [[inflammatory disease]] of the bile ducts which is in turn closely associated with [[ulcerative colitis]] (UC).<ref>{{cite journal |author=Chapman R |title=Risk factors for biliary tract carcinogenesis |journal=Ann Oncol |volume=10 Suppl 4 |issue= |pages=308-11 |year= |id=PMID 10436847}}</ref> Epidemiologic studies have suggested that the lifetime risk of developing cholangiocarcinoma for a person with PSC is 10%–15%,<ref>Epidemiologic studies which have addressed the incidence of cholangiocarcinoma in people with primary sclerosing cholangitis include the following:
