Key Words Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography; Brush cytology; Cholangiocarcinoma; Biliary dysplasia
Core Tip We investigated markers of high-grade dysplasia for the optimal timing of early liver trans­plantation (LT) in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). PSC patients in our unit undergo sur­veillance with endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) and brush cytology (BC) to identify evidence of dysplasia before progression to cholangiocarcinoma. Carbohydrate antigen 19-9 was higher in patients with cholangiocarcinoma, but no other differences between laboratory values, ERC scores, BC or ploidy analysis between the low-grade, high-grade or CCA groups were observed. Repeated suspicion of neoplasia in BC should be an indication for the evaluation for LT prior to the development of cholangiocarcinoma.
