| 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. |
