Abstract EN
Disorders of the hepatobiliary system are relatively common extraintestinal manifestations of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
These disorders are sometimes due to a shared pathogenesis with IBD as seen in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and small-duct primary sclerosing cholangitis (small-duct PSC).
There are also hepatobiliary manifestations such as cholelithiasis and portal vein thrombosis that occur due to the effects of chronic inflammation and the severity of bowel disease.
Lastly, medications used in IBD such as sulfasalazine, thiopurines, and methotrexate can adversely affect the liver.
It is important to be cognizant of these disorders as some do have serious long-term consequences.
The management of these disorders often requires the expertise of multidisciplinary teams to achieve the best outcomes.
