1. IgG4-Associated Cholangitis Can Mimic Hilar Cholangiocarcinoma

Abstract

IgG4-associated cholangitis can mimic hilar cholangiocarcinoma. Previously reported patients with IgG4-associated cholangitis mimicking cholangiocarcinoma had elevated serum IgG4 levels and long-segment biliary strictures. However, in the absence of other diagnostic criteria for malignancy, IgG4-associated cholangitis should remain a consideration among patients with normal serum IgG4 and a hilar mass suspicious for cholangiocarcinoma. The presence of a hilar mass and a malignant-appearing biliary stricture in two patients with normal serum IgG4 prompted further evaluation and subsequent concomitant liver and bile duct resection and reconstruction. The diagnosis of IgG4-associated cholangitis was established during the pathologic evaluation of the resected specimens. IgG4-associated cholangitis is a known imitator of hilar cholangiocarcinoma and should be considered in the differential diagnosis even among serologically IgG4-negative patients with a hilar mass prior to operative resection.

Abstract

Over the past 2 decades, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography with stricture dilation and stent placement has gradually become the first-line treatment modality for the vast majority of benign biliary strictures (BBSs). Stricture remediation with progressive placement of multiple plastic stents with 3 months interval stent exchange during a period of one year has excellent long-term results in patients with postoperative BBSs. Covered self-expandable metal stents (SEMS) are a reasonable alternative to multiple plastic stenting, especially in patients with chronic pancreatitis. The use of covered SEMS should be limited to carefully selected cases of postoperative BBSs. Uncovered SEMS are contraindicated for any type of BBSs. Understanding of the etiology and exclusion of malignancy is essential for optimal treatment in some types of biliary strictures, especially in the case of autoimmune cholangiopathy and primary sclerosing cholangitis.
