Cholangioscopically Guided Diagnosis of Cholangiocellular Carcinoma in a Patient with PSC, Presented by Alexander Dechene

Dr. Dechene is able to provide a definitive diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma arising from PSC for his patient.  While early diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma in PSC patients is challenging, Dr. Dechene is hopeful that the improved imaging of the SpyGlass DS System may help with identification of neoplastic intraductal lesions within inflammatory biliary changes, thus facilitating early diagnosis of CCC in a stage where curative resection is still an option.
