Abstract:
A 43-year old man presented with a clinical picture compatible with cholestatic jaundice. ERCP was suggestive of cholangiocarcinoma. Liver biopsy showed non-caseating granuloma. The diagnosis was a rare presentation of hepatic sarcoidosis causing obstruction to the biliary tract. Obstruction was alleviated with corticosteroids.
