| primary sclerosing cholangitis | <radiology> Idiopathic, associated with IBD (50%), usually UC, M more than F, peak age 20-30 years of age, chronic inflammation and fibrosis of all bile ducts, stricture, obstruction, abscess (string of beads), intramural pseudo-diverticula, cholangiocarcinoma (10%!!), dilatation proximal to stricture may signal carcinoma Differential diagnosis: cholangiocarcinomarcinoma (diffuse form), primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC), AIDS-related cholangitis (? due to CMV) (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| cholangitis, sclerosing | Chronic, nonbacterial inflammatory narrowing of the bile ducts. About 50% of the cases are associated with ulcerative colitis. Treatment is to relieve the obstruction by balloon dilatation or surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ascending cholangitis | Low-grade bacterial infection of the biliary tract; sometimes a cause of fever of unknown origin. Synonym: ascending cholangitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| recurrent pyogenic cholangitis | Repeated attacks of cholangitis, commonly noted among Asians living in Asia, associated with the presence of multiple intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile duct stones and strictures. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cholangitis | <pathology> Inflammation of a bile duct. Origin: Gr. Angeion = vessel (18 Nov 1997) |
| cholangitis lenta | Low-grade bacterial infection of the biliary tract; sometimes a cause of fever of unknown origin. Synonym: ascending cholangitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial sclerosing lesion | A variant of sclerosing adenosis of the breast with central scar formation and radiating hyperplastic ducts. Synonym: radial scar. (05 Mar 2000) |
| chronic diffuse sclerosing osteomyelitis | A proliferative reaction of bone to a low-grade infection of the jaws; most often seen in middle-aged or older black women as extensive, often bilateral radio-opacities of the mandible and maxilla. (05 Mar 2000) |
| chronic focal sclerosing osteomyelitis | A reaction of bone to a mild bacterial infection, often the result of a carious tooth, in persons with a high degree of tissue resistance; results in a localised radio-opacity. Synonym: focal condensing osteitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sclerosing adenosis | A nodular, benign breast lesion occurring most frequently in relatively young women and consisting of hyperplastic distorted lobules of acinar tissue with increased collagenous stroma; the changes may be difficult to distinguish microscopically from carcinoma. Also, a benign nodular microscopic lesion of the prostate consisting of acimar tissue with increased stroma; the basal cell layer shows characteristic smooth muscle metaplasia. Synonym: adenofibrosis, fibrosing adenomatosis, fibrosing adenosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sclerosing agent | A compound which acts by irritation of the veinous intimal epithelium; used in the treatment of varicose veins. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sclerosing haemangioma | <tumour> A benign lung or bronchial lesion, often subpleural, sometimes multiple, which forms hyalinised connective tissue. Synonym: fibrous histiocytoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sclerosing inflammation | Inflammation leading to extensive formation of fibrous and scar tissue. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sclerosing keratitis | Inflammation of the cornea complicating scleritis; characterised by opacification of the corneal stroma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sclerosing leukoencephalitis | <neurology> Chronic progressive illness seen in children a few years after measles infection and involving demyelination of the cerebral cortex. Virus apparently persists in brain cells: usually considered a slow virus disease. (18 Nov 1997) |
