Spontaneous perforation of the common bile duct: an uncommon complication of primary sclerosing cholangitis. Eur Radiol 2024; 34:6908-6918. [PMID: 38512493 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-024-10704-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2023] [Revised: 02/13/2024] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 03/23/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To describe the MR features and prognosis of patients with an uncommon complication of primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) characterized by a spontaneous perforation of the common bile duct (CBD) resulting in a peri-biliary collection and a pseudo-cystic appearance of the CBD. METHODS A single-center cohort of 263 patients with PSC who had at least two MRIs between 2003 and 2022 and a minimum follow-up of 1 year was retrospectively analyzed. MRI data (characteristics of CBD perforation and MR features of PSC) and clinical data were assessed. Analysis of survival without liver transplantation according to type of PSC (classical or CBD spontaneous perforation) was performed according to the Kaplan-Meier method and the curves were compared using the Log-Rank test. RESULTS A total of nine (3.4%) PSC patients (5 males) had perforation of the CBD with a median age at diagnosis of 18 years compared to 33 years for the control group (p = 0.019). The peri-biliary collections were variable in appearance (fusiform or pedunculated), with a diameter ranging from 5 to 54 mm. All nine patients showed intra- and extra-hepatic bile duct involvement, dysmorphia, and high ANALI scores. The clinical course was characterized by numerous complications in most patients, and five patients (56%) underwent liver transplantation at a median time of 5 years from diagnosis, compared to 40 patients (16%) in the control group (p = 0.02). CONCLUSION The spontaneous perforation of the common bile duct is an uncommon complication of primary sclerosing cholangitis that affects young patients and is associated with a poor prognosis. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT This uncommon complication of primary sclerosing cholangitis with perforation of the common bile duct resulting in a peri-biliary collection and a pseudo-cystic appearance of the common bile duct is characterized by a poor prognosis in younger patients. KEY POINTS • Among 263 patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), nine patients (3.6%) had an uncommon complication characterized on MRI by perforation of the common bile duct (CBD). • This perforation of the CBD was responsible in all nine cases for the formation of a peri-biliary collection, giving a pseudo-cystic appearance to the CBD. • The spontaneous perforation of the common bile duct is an uncommon complication of primary sclerosing cholangitis that affects young patients with a poor prognosis.

Identification of the Representative Primary Biliary Cholangitis Cohort in Taiwan: A Comparison of Four Nationwide Cohorts. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10112226. [PMID: 34063859 PMCID: PMC8196594 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10112226] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2021] [Revised: 05/12/2021] [Accepted: 05/19/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE The rates and outcomes of primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) in Taiwan remain unclear. METHODS A nationwide population-based cohort study (Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database, 2002-2015) was conducted. Data from four PBC cohorts with various definitions were compared (cohort 1 (C1): ICD-9-CM (571.6); C2: alkaline phosphatase (Alk-P) and antimitochondrial antibody (AMA) measurements; C3: Alk-p and AMA measurements and ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) treatment; C4: ICD-9-CM (571.6), Alk-p and AMA measurements and UDCA treatment). RESULTS The average prevalence rate ranged from 9.419/105 (C4) to 307.658/105 (C2), and the female-to-male ratio ranged from 1.192 (C1) to 3.66 (C4). Prevalence rates increased over time in all cohorts. The average incidence rates ranged from 1.456/105 (C4) to 66.386/105 (C2). Incidence rates decreased over time in C1 (-9.09%, p < 0.0001) and C4 (-6.68%, p < 0.0001) and remained steady in the others. C4 had the lowest prevalence and incidence rates and highest female-to-male ratio. Cirrhosis rates ranged from 7.21% (C2) to 39.34% (C4), hepatoma rates ranged from 2.77%(C2) to 6.66%(C1), liver transplantation (LT) rates ranged from 1.07% (C2) to 6.77% (C4), and mortality rates ranged from 18.24% (C2) to 47.36% (C1). C4 had the highest LT (6.77%), osteoporosis (13.87%) and dyslipidemia rates (17.21%). CONCLUSIONS Based on the reported ranges of reasonable rates, female predominance and characteristic outcomes, C4 was the most representative Taiwanese PBC cohort, with average prevalence and incidence rates of 9.419/105 and 1.456/105, respectively, and a female-to-male ratio of 3.66. In a 14-year period, cirrhosis, hepatoma, LT, and mortality were noted in 39.34%, 5.52%, 6.77%, and 34.22% of C4 patients, respectively.
