Recurrent pyogenic cholangiopathy produces severe biliary strictures and pigmented intraductal stones, frequently leading to recurrent cholangitis and abscesses.
Imaging reveals prominent bile duct dilatation alongside periportal echogenicity, while biliary cultures commonly isolate bacterial species including Escherichia coli.
Radiological assessment highlights segmental hepatic atrophy and duct stones, indicating that interventional radiology or surgery can successfully remove intrahepatic biliary debris.
