Overview
Natural History
Complications
Some of the complications of primary sclerosing cholangitis include:[1]
- Osteoporosis: Patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis lose 1% of their bone mass every year.[2]
- Liver cirrhosis and end-stage liver disease (ESLD).
- Cholangiocarcinoma: the risk of cholangiocarcinoma in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis is 400 times higher than the risk in the general population.[3]
Prognosis
The following factors are associated with a poorer prognosis in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis:[1]
- The classic disease is associated with a poorer prognosis than small bile duct disease.[4][3]
- Patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis and an increased serum level of IgG4 have a worse prognosis than patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis and a normal serum level of IgG4.[5]
- After one to two years of diagnosis, patients with serum alkaline phosphatase level of ≥1.5 times the upper limit of the normal range have a worse outcome than patients who have serum alkaline phosphatase levels of less than 1.5 times the upper limit of the normal range.[6][7][8]
