Pericholangitis was not a finding in the recent study by Edwards and Truelove (9) of 624 cases of ulcerative colitis nor by Palmer, Kirsner, Goldgraber, and Fuentes (10) in a recent large postmortem survey. In the monograph of Cameron and Hou (2), ulcerative colitis was not included among the numerous diseases producing pericholangitis. There have...References1.
