    AbstractA case of primary sclerosing cholangitis associated with cystic dilatations of intrahepatic bile ducts simulating Caroli's disease is described. The diagnosis of primary sclerosing cholangitis was based upon cholangiogram features, liver histologic examination and the association with chronic ulcerative colitis. It may be suggested that the cystic dilatation of intrahepatic bile duct represents an extreme form of the usual mild dilatations (cholangiectases) described in primary sclerosing cholangitis. We suggest that cystic dilatation of intrahepatic bile ducts could be included among the radiologic features of this disease.
