Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) is a rare, chronic, and progressive liver disease where the bile ducts in the liver become inflamed and scarred. This can cause blockage of the bile ducts and lead to serious long-term complications, including cirrhosis of the liver, liver failure, and even liver cancer. PSC is most commonly diagnosed in young to middle-aged adults, and there is currently no cure. Treatment focuses on managing the symptoms and preventing progression of the disease. It is important to recognize the symptoms of PSC and get an early diagnosis to ensure better outcomes.
