  • The natural history of small duct primary sclerosing cholangitis

    • Background & Aims: The long-term prognosis of patients with small-duct primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) remains incompletely characterized. We aimed at determining the natural history and long-term outcomes of a large number of patients with small-duct PSC. Methods: Data from 83 patients with well-characterized small-duct PSC from several medical institutions in Europe and the United States were combined. Each patient with small-duct PSC was randomly matched to 2 patients with large-duct PSC by age, gender, calendar year of diagnosis, and institution. Results: The median age at diagnosis in both groups was 38 years (61% males). Nineteen (22.9%) of the 83 patients with small-duct PSC progressed to large-duct PSC in a median of 7.4 (interquartile range [IQR], 5.1–14) years. One patient with small-duct PSC who progressed to large-duct PSC was diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma but after progression to large-duct PSC; 20 patients with large-duct PSC developed cholangiocarcinoma. Patients with small-duct PSC had a significantly longer transplantation-free survival compared with large-duct PSC patients (13 years [IQR, 10–17] vs 10 years [IQR, 6–14], respectively; hazard ratio, 3.04; 95% confidence interval: 1.82–5.06; P < .0001). Two patients with small-duct PSC who underwent liver transplantation had recurrence of small-duct PSC in the graft 9 and 13 years, respectively, after transplantation. Conclusions: Small-duct PSC is a disease of progressive potential but associated with a better long-term prognosis as compared with large-duct PSC. Small-duct PSC may recur after liver transplantation. Cholangiocarcinoma does not seem to occur in patients with small-duct PSC, unless the disease has progressed to large-duct PSC.

  • Dense genotyping of immune-related disease regions identifies nine new risk loci for primary sclerosing cholangitis.
  • 2013
  • In: Nature genetics. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1546-1718 .- 1061-4036. ; 45:6, s. 670-5
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a severe liver disease of unknown etiology leading to fibrotic destruction of the bile ducts and ultimately to the need for liver transplantation. We compared 3,789 PSC cases of European ancestry to 25,079 population controls across 130,422 SNPs genotyped using the Immunochip. We identified 12 genome-wide significant associations outside the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) complex, 9 of which were new, increasing the number of known PSC risk loci to 16. Despite comorbidity with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in 72% of the cases, 6 of the 12 loci showed significantly stronger association with PSC than with IBD, suggesting overlapping yet distinct genetic architectures for these two diseases. We incorporated association statistics from 7 diseases clinically occurring with PSC in the analysis and found suggestive evidence for 33 additional pleiotropic PSC risk loci. Together with network analyses, these findings add to the genetic risk map of PSC and expand on the relationship between PSC and other immune-mediated diseases.
