It is the disease of the bile ducts. Bile ducts helps in transportation of digestive liquid bile from liver to the small intestine.

Sclerosing cholangitis is a type of chronic cholestatic syndromes characterized by patchy inflammation, fibrosis, and strictures of the intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts. Progression obliterates the bile ducts and leads to cirrhosis, liver failure, and sometimes cholangiocarcinoma.
TYPES: - Primary (no known cause) and Secondary due to immune deficiencies (congenital in children,
acquired in adults).
Both primary and secondary sclerosing Cholangitis cause similar inflammatory and fibrosing lesions scarring the bile ducts.
Other causes of bile duct strictures are Cholodocholithiasis, postoperative biliary stricture, cholangiocarcinoma etc.
Diagnosis of biliary strictures and dilation requires imaging techniques such as USG and cholangiography.
CONCLUSION: -
Homoeopathic medicines follow the norm Similibus Curentur. The medicines have the capacity to prevent and cure the disease process by restricting its further progress. Also the sign and symptoms are controlled by the Homoeopathic medicinal power and potency.
