The release of chemokines or cytokines is the likely cause in some cases. Cholangitis characterized by the presence of numerous polymorphonuclear cells around and within the wall as well as within the lumen of the ducts. This may involve ducts of any size and is occasionally associated with abscess formation (cholangitic abscess). |
