Primary sclerosing cholangitis

Listen to this summary

This article investigates the clinical features, pathogenesis, and management challenges of primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), a rare chronic liver disease often associated with inflammatory bowel disease. The authors aim to clarify the disease's variable presentation, the role of genetic and environmental factors, including the intestinal microbiome, and the limited treatment options available. The seminar highlights the need for a deeper understanding of PSC to improve patient outcomes and management strategies.
