| Primary sclerosing cholangitis associated with ulcerative colitis is twofold more common in men than women. |
|
| Patients in corticosteroid group had hemorrhage in four cases, cholangitis in three cases and acute cholecystis in two cases. |
|
| The patient described in this report had every major complication of Caroli disease, including recurrent cholangitis, liver abscess, biliary lithiasis, and cholangiocarcinoma. |
|
| Many patients with sclerosing cholangitis also have ulcerative colitis. |
|
| In elderly and diabetic clients, occult cholecystitis or cholangitis may be the source of fever, sepsis or changes in mental status. |
|
| Severe cholecystitis can evolve into sepsis or cholangitis, especially in diabetic or elderly clients in whom the diagnosis may be delayed. |
|
| In this scenario, early cholecystectomy would avoid significant complications such as biliary colic, cholangitis, cholecystitis, and pancreatitis from the residual stones. |
|
| At 19 she was diagnosed with the liver disease primary sclerosing cholangitis. |
|
| But it is his triumph over primary sclerosing cholangitis, or P. S. C, that overshadows all his other victories. |
|
| This includes gallstones, primary biliary cirrhosis and many other diseases such as primary sclerosing cholangitis. |
|
| For the patient with unifocal colonization, he was admitted to SICU for septic shock secondary to acute cholangitis. |
|
| At the age of 19, she was diagnosed with the chronic fatigue disease sclerosing cholangitis and by the time she made her debut for Britain's Fed Cup team in 2002, it was clear her career was being seriously affected. |
|
| She had been diagnosed with primary sclerosing cholangitis, a chronic liver condition which affects the immune system, at just 19 but had managed the condition throughout her career with medication and regular blood tests. |
|
| The thirteen patients in the placebo group had the similar adverse events: hemorrhage in six, cholangitis in three, acute cholecystis in four cases. |
|
| A Phase III trial on the efficacy of URSO DS for the treatment of primary sclerosing cholangitis has been initiated at 7 sites, including the Mayo Clinic. |
|
| These complications consisted of severe cholangitis, large abscesses and sepsis, and portal venous or mesentericoportal venous thrombosis. |
|
| Identifiable risk factors, such as hepatolithiasis, sclerosing cholangitis, liver flukes, and exposure to Thorotrast, account for only a small proportion of the cases. |
|
| Nonmalignant causes include biliary tract obstruction, cholangitis, inflammatory bowel disease, acute or chronic pancreatitis, cirrhosis, and cystic fibrosis. |
