ABSTRACT
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), secondary sclerosing cholangitis (SSC), and primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) are impor-tant indications for liver transplantation. An emerging indication for liver transplantation in selected cases is SSC after severe COVID-19 infection. The clinical presenta-tion of these cholestatic diseases is highly heterogeneous - from asymptomatic and mild elevations of liver enzymes to severe disease-specific complications like recurrent cholangitis or severe bone disorder to de-compensated liver cirrhosis. Such disease-specific clinical complications, disease-spe-cific scores, as well as the MELD score, need to be considered when selecting patients for liver transplantation.Copyright © 2023 Dustri-Verlag Dr. K.
