Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is a chronic liver disease and no definite therapy has been established yet. The patient had jaundice during her clinical course of PBC. As the development of jaundice is an important sign of a poor prognosis, secretin, which is reported to have a choloretic effect, was sdministered to improve the jaundice. Soon after the treatment, her serum level of bilirubin decreased. Additionally, supplmetal study of secretin induced choleresis was taken in another potient who underwent porcutaneous transhepatic choledocal drainage. Secretin therapy appeared to be usefull for the resolution of jaundice in PBC patient.
