Caroli’S Syndrome

Caroli’s disease (CD) is a very rare congenital disorder that is characterized by non-obstructive, segmental and cystic dilatation of intrahepatic ducts. Most patients with CD are asymptomatic, but some patients may suffer from hepatic fibrosis, liver cirrhosis or/and portal hypertension. In complex CD, cystic dilatations of the intrahepatic bile ducts can be present with congenital hepatic fibrosis, liver cirrhosis, portal hypertension, oesophageal varices and autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease; a condition known as Caroli’s syndrome. This report describes the case of a 28-year-old woman that had gastro-oesophageal varices that were caused by hepatic fibrosis and portal hypertension as part of Caroli’s syndrome. The patient underwent successful treatment with endoscopic injection sclerotherapy with lauromacrogol and endoscopic variceal obturation using tissue adhesive. There were no immediate complications and the patient remained free of complications at 1-year follow-up. There are no current reports in the published literature describing Caroli’s syndrome induced by gastro-oesophageal varices that were treated by a combination of endoscopic injection sclerotherapy and endoscopic variceal obturation. Endoscopic therapy was an effective technique for the treatment of gastro-oesophageal varices in a patient with Caroli’s syndrome awaiting a liver transplant.
