Abstract
Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a very rare cause of secondary sclerosing cholangitis. We report the case of a 42-year-old male patient with sclerosing cholangitis and histological evidence of LCH from a bile duct biopsy. Due to rapid disease progression and exhaustion of conservative therapeutic approaches the patient received a liver transplantation. Nearly 2 years after transplantation the patient has a good graft function and no signs of recurrence of the underlying LCH.
