this looks like mild recurrent HCV without fibroisis and is actually a good biopsy. these findings do not explain your symptoms.
There is sparse perivenular lymphocytic infiltrate surrounding 2 portal veins. no neutrophilis or eosinophils are identified. no signifigant endothelialitis or cholangitis is identified. Within lobules rare acidophil bodies end mild hepatocyte anisoncleosis are seen., but there is no significant inflamatory cell infiltrate. Occasional glycogenated nuclei are seen. there is no signifiicant cholestasis or steatosis. no significant fibrosis.Liver tissue within minimal histologic abnormality. biopsy done two months after stents were removed. my hep c is 60,000 per. What is your opinion about biopsy? Is a biopsy determinant or preclude any possible complications that could be causing these symtoms? Given the previous information what would you suggest to rule out that these complications aren't coming from a bile duct problem , and any associated damage that this could be doing to my liver? Thank You very much Dr Thomas Schiano
all of this could be related to having bile duct problems. what actually did the biopsy show--recurrence of HCV?
I had biopsy and liver showed no rejection. tp for cirrhosis hep c . What do you think about bilirubin , pain and itching ? Could have any thing to do with bile ducts? stomach swells up after eating especially, but stays in the position as if im sticking my stomach out.its like my intestines are full of water.Could this have any thing to do with previous strangulated intestines? Thank you Dr Schiano
have you ever had a liver biopsy to make sure rejection is present? what was the reason that you were transplanted in the first place?
