Pronunciation: [pɹˈa͡ɪməɹi sklˈɛɹə͡ʊzɪŋ t͡ʃˌɒlɐnd͡ʒˈa͡ɪtɪs] (IPA) 
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a rare liver disease that affects the bile ducts. Although there are no synonyms for the term PSC, there are other related terms that are sometimes used to describe this condition, including sclerosing cholangitis, cholangitis obliterans, and autoimmune cholangitis. PSC is a chronic condition that can cause inflammation and scarring of the bile ducts, leading to an obstruction of the flow of bile from the liver. Symptoms of PSC include jaundice, itchiness, fatigue, and abdominal pain. Effective treatment options for PSC are limited, and a liver transplant may be necessary in some cases.
