[Guidelines on the diagnosis and management of primary sclerosing cholangitis (2021)].

In 2015, the first Chinese consensus on the diagnosis and management of primary sclerosing cholangitis was issued. In the past years, more data have emerged from the literature. Herein, the Autoimmune Liver Disease Group of the Chinese Society of Hepatology organized an expert group to review the evidence and updated the recommendations to formulate the guidelines. There are 21 recommendations on PSC clinical practice. To facilitate the differentiation between PSC and IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis, 10 recommendations on IgG4-SC are also attached. These guidelines aim to provide a working reference for the management of PSC and IgG4-SC.
