  • Title: Cholestasis as a paraneoplastic manifestation of carcinoma of the kidney.
    Author: Jakobovits AW, Crimmins FB, Sherlock S, Erlinger S, Rambaud J.
    Journal: Aust N Z J Med; 1981 Feb; 11(1):64-7. PubMed ID: 6941780.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of hepatic paraneoplastic manifestations of carcinoma of the kidney are presented. In one, hepatosplenomegaly and abnormal liver function tests resolved following removal of the tumour. In the other, pruritus as a symptom of cholestasis was the presenting feature. Post-operatively a full blown cholestatic syndrome developed. Although their clinical presentations differed they may represent a spectrum of the same disease.
