Yes: Prfimary scleroising cholangitis (psc) is severe inflammation and scarring that develops in the bile ducts. About half of all psc patients have ibd. Psc occurs more frequently in people with ulcerative colitis than in those with crohn’s disease, affecting men more than women.Other complications include gall stones, pancreatitis, and fatty liver.Need to see doctor for evaluation and physical exam.
