Between February 26, 1981, and July 30, 1987, 36 patients underwent orthotopic liver transplantation for primary sclerosing cholangitis associated with ulcerative colitis. Three of the 36 recipients died within 3 mo because of graft nonfunction or surgical complications. The other 33 (92%) lived for

The predictors for developing varices in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) have not been well studied prospectively. We sought to define the predictors for the presence of varices at baseline and for newly developing varices in patients with PSC. We used prospectively collected data
Background: Patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and colitis are at risk of developing dysplasia and colorectal cancer (CRC). Consequently, annual surveillance colonoscopy with random biopsies is recommended. The aims of the present study were (1) to determine the incidence of dysplasi
Background: We hypothesized that patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) may have a higher risk for prepouch ileitis in the setting of ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA). The aim of this study was to compare endoscopic and histologic inflammation in the afferent limb (prepouch ileum) and
## Abstract Our purpose was to determine the predictive value of tumor biologic parameters in patients with HRPBC who received HDCT with ASCT as firstβline treatment. From September 1992 to May 2000, 149 stage II or III HRPBC patients were enrolled in a singleβarm trial using a tandem HDCT regimen
