Primary sclerosing cholangitis progression?


liver cancer and rectal cancer. What are progession signs?

If the person you are asking about has both primary sclerosing cholangitis and rectal and liver cancer then the prognosis is not good. PSC is not cancer but the combination of the two diseases carries a poor prognosis.

Scroll down for the section on PSC and colon cancer

Symptoms of progression would be the same as for advanced cirrhosis in combination with liver cancer - ascites, swelling, potential bowel blockage, malaise. good luck

PSC signs of progression are:
Fatigue
Itching
Jaundice
Pain in upper right quarter of torso
Fever and chills
Cirrhosis
Enlarged spleen
Personality changes
Kidney failure
Chalangiocarcinoma

PSC is often diagnosed together with UC or Chrohn's disease.
