Core Tip	There have been few advances in therapeutics for primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and there remain areas of controversy in the management of PSC. In this review, we address these controversies, which include the differentiation of PSC from other cholangiopathies, in particular immunoglobulin G4 related sclerosing cho-langitis, the management of dominant biliary strictures, the role of ursodeoxycholic acid, and the timing of liver transplantation.
