Hepatocellular carcinoma: low risk of HCC in patients who have PSC and cirrhosis
Abstract
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is understood to be associated with an increased risk of malignancy in the bile ducts, gallbladder and colon. The risk of hepatocellular carcinoma in the setting of PSC, however, is not well defined. Zenouzi et al. provide an analysis of their experience in a recent article.
