AB A 35-year-old Swiss woman with AIDS experienced fever, jaundice and
cough. Laboratory evaluation revealed signs of an infection and
cholestasis. The examination by ultrasound showed thickening of the
intra- and extrahepatic bile ducts and gallbladder wall, without
dilatation or stones. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography demonstrated
diffuse sclerosing cholangitis like lesions in the biliary tract and
confirmed the diagnosis of a HIV related cholangiopathy. The cause was a
cytomegalovirus infection as shown by liver biopsy with detection of
cytomegalovirus early antigen. The treatment with ganciclovir was of
some efficacy with improvement of jaundice.
