Update on pharmacotherapies for cholestatic liver disease
Ahmad H. Ali, James H. Tabibian, Keith D. Lindor – 21 December 2016 – Cholestatic liver diseases are conditions with impaired bile formation and/or flow due to genetic, immunologic, environmental, or other causes. Unless successfully treated, this can lead to chronic liver injury and end‐stage liver disease. Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) embody the most prominent adult cholestatic liver diseases with regard to incidence, morbidity, and mortality.
