| description | The purpose of the present review is to discuss the diagnosis
and management of cholestatic liver diseases. Differential diagnoses
to consider are described, including causes of extrahepatic
biliary obstruction such as gallstones, strictures, extrabiliary malignancies
and pancreatitis. In addition, diseases that cause intrahepatic
cholestasis such as primary biliary cirrhosis, primary
sclerosing cholangitis, hepatocellular diseases and a variety of miscellaneous
causes including drugs that may cause cholestasis are
discussed. Primary biliary cirrhosis and primary sclerosing
cholangitis are reviewed in detail, and management options are
identified. The prognosis of patients with these diseases is discussed,
and the Mayo Mathematical Models in Cholestatic Liver
Disease for both primary biliary cirrhosis and primary sclerosing
cholangitis are provided. Finally, management options for the
complications of cholestasis are provided. |
