The phenotypic landscape of primary biliary cholangitis and autoimmune hepatitis variants.
Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) stand as distinct diseases, yet occasionally intertwine with overlapping features, posing diagnostic and management challenges. This recognition traces back to the 1970s, with initial case reports highlighting this complexity. Diagnostic scoring systems like IAIHG and simplified criteria for AIH were introduced but are inherently limited in diagnosing variant syndromes. The so-called Paris criteria offer a diagnostic framework with high sensitivity and specificity for variant syndromes, although disagreements among international guidelines persist. Histological findings in AIH and PBC may exhibit overlapping features, rendering histology alone inadequate for a definitive diagnosis. Autoantibody profiles could be helpful, but similarly cannot be considered alone to reach a solid and consistent evaluation. Treatment strategies vary based on the predominant features observed. Individuals with overlapping characteristics favoring AIH ideally benefit from corticosteroids, while patients primarily manifesting PBC features should initially receive treatment with choleretic drugs like ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA).
期刊介绍:
Gastroenterology and Hepatology is the first journal to cover the latest advances in pathology of the gastrointestinal tract, liver, pancreas, and bile ducts, making it an indispensable tool for gastroenterologists, hepatologists, internists and general practitioners.
