Core Tip |
Chronic biliary inflammation and cholestasis are risk factors for cholangiocarcinoma. However, an association of IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis with cholangiocarcinoma has not been previously demonstrated. To date, only two report described have neoplasia in the bile duct in patients with IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis. Risk factors for cholangiocarcinoma include chronic biliary inflammation and cholestasis, both of which can contribute to the malignant transformation of cholangiocytes in patients with sclerosing cholangitis. Because of a long duration of overt IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis and the affected location of the patient’s cholangiocarcinoma, we presumed a cause-and-effect relationship between the sclerosing cholangitis and bile duct cancer. |
