| 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) |
| sclerosing mastoiditis | A chronic mastoiditis in which the trabeculae are greatly thickened, almost or entirely obliterating the cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| primary sclerosing cholangitis |
An irritation or scarring of the bile ducts located outside of the liver (extrahepatic bile ducts) caused by the immune system. This disease usually does not affect the small bile ducts within the liver. In patients with ulcerative colitis, an increased incidence of this disease has been identified.

|
| primary sclerosing cholangitis |
liver disorder characterized by an inflammatory and sclerosing process leading to a progressive reduction in the diameter of the bile ducts; its progressive course generally leads to liver cirrhosis, portal hypertension and often death.
